Rating: 8/10 (24 October 2018)

A young man Michael becomes obsessed with an older woman, Hanna Schmitz. In return for lovemaking he reads the classics like Homer's Odessey to please her. One day she disappears and young Michael was devastated. His life destroyed so he buries himself in his books. His additive reading helped his education and law career. Over the years he became a avid book reader and collector.
The warm Hanna at the beginning of our story turns cold at times. She was illiterate and to put it bluntly, very dumb. She is publicly confronted with the horrors of her youth and sent to prison. Michael a law student was a shocked spectator at the trail.. A much older Michael records many books on cassette for her to play while in prison. Over the years she educates herself but the educated Hanna finds life unbearable living with the memory of her dark past. Michael went to the prison to get her on the day of her scheduled release.
