Which is more powerful: love or hate? For centuries, society has argued this question. In this book, Aphrodite, the goddess of love, sets out to prove and once and for all that hate and war are no match for the power of love. To prove this, she tells the stories of four individuals, Hazel and James and Collette and Aubrey, whose lives intersect during the one the deadliest wars in history, World War I. As they fall in love against this bloody backdrop, can their
love survive the brutality of war? Will love be more powerful than war? Told with gorgeous prose that weaves a spell around the reader, this immersive story draw you in with complex characters, luminous writing, and a rare look into the horrors of World War I. Aphrodite might be the one caught in the net at the start of this book, but the reader is the one that will be trapped by this magical book. Highly, highly recommended!
