    A foundling 20 years old, in search of the father and mother, in search of self, finds, for the first time, a person whose love is worth fighting for: Roswitha, a librarian from East Berlin cast away at the end of the world. Kotzebue is the name of the little town in Northwest Alaska, where the story of these two people takes place, an Eskimo trading post between snowy heavens and polar sea, discovered by the son of the German comedy writer August von Kotzebue. And Kotzebue is the name of the foundling too, who looks like a young man, but is in fact a woman. Following some inner compulsion, she pursues a path to Roswitha's heart finally declaring her love in a hotel room in Berlin. N.B.: Salomnberries -- salmon colored raspberry-shaped berries -- are the citrus fruit of the far north. They contain twice as much vitamin C as oranges.
