Lovely War

Lovely War

Aphrodite stands trial to answer the question, “Why are Love and War eternally drawn to one another? But her quest for a conclusion that will satisfy her jealous husband uncovers a multi-threaded tale of prejudice, trauma, and music and reveals that War is no match for the power of Love,” to her husband Hephaestus. She in turn tells the story of four lovers during WWI, with the help of other gods as witnesses.
