The story revolves around the Lönner family, particularly focusing on the young girl Nanny, who navigates her life in poverty while yearning for beauty and companionship.

The opening of the novel introduces readers to Nanny, a delicate and introspective sixteen-year-old girl living with her family in a humble home. As she reflects on her status among the "poor half-gentry," Nanny grapples with her feelings of inadequacy and her longing for a brighter future. The narrative paints her environment vividly, depicting the rural landscape and her interactions with her father and sister, Magda. We see Nanny's hopes and fears blossom as she encounters new people, particularly a young man named Gottlieb, who awakens her dreams and aspirations while presenting her with both the challenges and possibilities of love and societal expectations.
