This is a collection of letters, pages of diary books and journals, written by a passionately artisan young man Marius Handler and the people who are involved in his circle, including his spoiled sister, Wilhelma and a pessimistically critical, pedagogical yet sickly law student Peter von Sigismund, to whom Marius fell for his beauty and eventually fell in love with. The collection of these documents tell the romance and the complex story of both young men's struggle to maintain their dangerous, yet passionate love. Inspired by The Sorrow of Young Werther by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and The Philosophical Letters by Friedrich Schiller.
Jeremy and Peter have a comfortable hatred for each other, one that stemmed from years of pretending to be best friends purely for survival purposes in the social-driven world of high school. When they attend a classmate's house party, however, too much alcohol results in a kiss between the fifteen-year-old-boys - and the confusion is close behind.
Now, Jeremy must struggle with his own feelings as his sister holds one of her own, attempting to find his place in the world while feeling comfortable with who he is and supporting the people he loves.
