Adaptation is everything. Inge Lohmark is well aware of that; in the end, she's been teaching biology for more than 30 years. But little or nothing will change the fact that her university is going to be finished in four years: in this dwindling town in the eastern German countryside, there are fewer and fewer children. Inge's partner, who was a cattle inseminator prior to the reunification, is now mating ostriches. Their daughter, Claudia, emigrated to the U.S. years ago and has no intention of having children. Everyone is resisting the span of dynamics that Inge shows every day in category. When Inge confirms herself experiencing powerful thoughts for a 9th-grade young lady, her biologically established worldview is shaken. And in progressively outlandish ways, she attempts to save lots of what can't be saved.
