The story revolves around Uli, a farmhand whose irresponsible behavior leads him into a cycle of trouble and dissatisfaction in his life.

The opening of the novel introduces a rural household where
the master, Johannes, is awakened by his wife, who is concerned about Uli's drunkenness and tardiness. Uli is portrayed as a physically strong but morally confused young man, whose choices have strained his relationship with his employer. Following a reprimand from Johannes, Uli vacillates between defensiveness and introspection, reflecting on his haphazard lifestyle and the challenges of poverty.
