Estis' O Erotas Horo

Fifteen-year-old Leniο attends a girls’ school in Athens, training to become a teacher, while two young cadets compete for her heart. Her choice will create a sworn enemy, capable of anything.

Around them, the cauldron of History is boiling; danger lurks everywhere. The wounded rival will lay in wait for years to come. The Great War, followed by the Occupation and the Civil War, will intensify the passions.

Inevitably, the fratricidal agony of the Civil War will seep into Lenio’s own family — between her very children. And then, in her despair, the heavens will send her help from the distant past: a book written by a great-grandmother who lived through another civil conflict, the one that ended in the legendary Exodus of Messolonghi.

There, in that book of the past, Lenio will discover her own fate.

The fateful book speaks of forgiveness — a little word easy in novels, and nearly impossible in real life.
