Revolving around the modern Greek woman and her perspective on love in general, not one, but twenty-one brief and vivid vignettes--some of them beautifully allegorical, and other charmingly artistic--attempt to shed light on an ever-present matter: can there be consequences in Cupid's eternal game? Since Adam and Eve, the omnipotent Eros rules the hearts of men and women--no task is too difficult for him once he sets his mind on succeeding--after all, he did manage to govern the will of a love-smitten Prince Paris to conquer the young temptress, Helen of Troy. With this in mind, no human is safe from the intoxicating effects of desire--be it unfaithful husbands in search of the next excitement; always-curious students; seemingly prudent seductresses; hopeless lovers, and even elderly couples. Is there democracy in the uphill battle for love?
