| Summary | "Seed-Time and Harvest: A Novel" by Fritz Reuter is a fiction work written in the late 19th century. The story begins with the somber experience of a widowed farmer, Karl Habermann, as he faces the emotional turmoil of losing his wife and the financial ruin of his farm. Through Habermann's journey, the book explores themes of hardship, resilience, and the bond between father and daughter in the context of rural life in Pomerania. At the start of the novel, we find Habermann grieving under an ash-tree in his neglected garden as he contemplates the loss of his wife and the auctioning of his possessions. He reflects on the labor and hope he invested in his farm, now lost due to misfortunes, while caring for his young daughter, Louise. The narrative introduces various characters, including neighbors and friends who wish to support him during this trying time, as well as the harsh words of his landlord that sow bitterness. The early chapters predominantly set the tone of despair tinged with hope as Habermann seeks a way forward for himself and his child amidst the ruins of his past life.
