Even if it starts off as a kind of a Romeo and Juliet story, with two lovers being forced to hide from their families and being separated by their different circumstances, it unveils as something entirely different. In a series of letters that the unnamed He writes to an unnamed Her, not even knowing if she’ll even read them, we discover a beautiful internal world of thoughts, passions, pains, struggles and hopes that make up a lifetime, each and every one of them a little piece of art, the art that they both so admire.
A chance meeting after a whole lifetime spent apart, a lifetime that brought them both a lot of pain, brings them the comfort of knowing a once-in-a-lifetime kind of love, the kind that can keep you alive through anything, even if it can only exist beyond the boundaries of time, space, circumstance.
This wonderfully written short novella will rock you with its fine language as much as with its huge heart and emotion, and find you wishing you had that kind of rare meeting of souls in your life too. Don’t miss it!
