The ultimate historical romance: one love story unfolds over many centuries and many lives in this captivating page-turner from Suzanne Weyn.
From prehistory to the present, theirs was a love for the ages. It starts with a fight in a cave over an elusive green jewel . . . and then travels over time and lives to include Egyptian slaves, Greek temples, Massachusetts witch trials, Civil War battlefields, Paris on the eve of World War II, America in the 1960s . . . and a pair of modern-day teenagers. For readers who believe that love is stronger than time or death, this is an unforgettable novel from a wonderful storyteller.
It was really hard to get into. I felt like I was reading a collection of short stories the whole time though there are elements in each "reincarnation" that tie them all together. The ending wasn't overly done but I felt that after so much build up, I have to say that I was quite disappointed with the present day ending.
