The Poet's Daughter: An absolutely captivating historical drama of love, betrayal, and rebellion

1801. Sessenheim. In the quiet and idyllic parsonage in the Alsace, Anna has received an extraordinary education under the watchful eye of her grandfather, the village pastor. But a most shocking revelation turns her world upon its head: her father is none other than the legendary German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Sent away to the culturally vibrant city of Weimar to live with her father, Anna finds herself trapped in a gilded cage, paraded before suitors of good name and fortune. But Anna yearns for more than marriage. She longs to write, a secret she guards fiercely from her unsuspecting father. A chance encounter with Friedrich, a set carpenter at the Weimar Theater, ignites a friendship that fuels her hidden passion.

With the rumble of the invading French army and her heart refusing to yield to her father's wishes, Anna plots her escape. But when she discovers her father has found and used her writing, she sets out to fight not only for her love of words but for the man who sees her true spirit.

In the shadow of a literary giant, a young woman finds her voice. Discover Anna's extraordinary story in The Poet's Daughter.
