London, late 19th century. New inventions and technological achievements coexist with poverty and miserable working conditions. A wealthy young woman discovers the movement of anarchism, which at that time, in many different forms, is spreading across Europe, and seeks active participation in it.

How will she be able to coexist with the zealots of the movement, the advocates of absolute freedom in politics and love, the aspiring terrorists, as well as the idle who find in their participation a way to live off the money and efforts of their "comrades"?

Through the eyes of the heroine, as well as the daily life in the offices of an anarchist newspaper of the time, the reader discovers a world unknown, yet at the same time strikingly familiar, and the roots of a movement with violent and peaceful branches, which even today remains active and almost unchanged.

An exciting autobiographical novel for every ideologically curious reader.
