After shaking up the fantasy genre with a sweeping epic, the author now ventures into a lively, lighthearted romantic comedy, told in a poetic style reminiscent of the novel in verse…
Yliès and Penelope—it sounds like a couple made for each other, a romantic pair of intellectuals; it’s musical, indulgent, sweet and satisfying. So why doesn’t Penelope love him, Yliès, huh? She’s playing with him, too—seriously: from the day she met him, she knew he liked her. She sensed it, understood it. So why, why did she let him get close, fall for her, slip into her daily life and her friendships, go so far, get so close? Why doesn’t she want to love him?
