Description

Papa Schimmelhorn appears to be an unassuming elderly man, known for his meticulous work as a cuckoo clock assembler. However, beneath his quaint exterior lies a world of intrigue and unexpected desires fueled by his overactive hormones. This seemingly innocuous figure becomes embroiled in a captivating adventure that intertwines the peculiarities of his profession with the complexities of human emotion.

As Schimmelhorn navigates through a series of unexpected events, he finds himself confronting both external challenges and internal struggles. The narrative vividly explores his relationships, revealing how seemingly mundane interactions can lead to extraordinary circumstances. The characters that populate his life add richness to the story, illustrating various facets of love, ambition, and the pursuit of happiness.

Reginald Bretnor masterfully weaves humor and warmth into Schimmelhorn's journey, crafting a tale that is both whimsical and thought-provoking. The narrative draws readers in, urging them to reflect on the nature of passion, the passage of time, and the enduring quirks of the human spirit.
