Young Joseph came to Behrensweil and joined Chang Gengxing Villa. Engineer Mr. Tobler hired him as an assistant to help sell his inventions. The assistant enjoys the comfortable living conditions in the villa, but has not been able to receive his salary. A large number of bills came in, but the engineer refused to pay them, leaving his assistant to prevaricate. The Tobler children were treated very differently, from being doted on to being abused. The assistant saw it, but didn't know whether to intervene. Is there a crisis hidden behind the glamorous life in the manor? And where will Joseph go from an unpaid job?

The author Robert Walser's description is very delicate, making me feel like I can see everything happening in Chang Gengxing Villa. His writing is also very profound, just like the two excerpts from the book, which made me think deeply. This book made me see the crisis behind the glamorous life, and also made me think about my own life. Recommended to you!
