There are many kinds of love in this moving story, from family loyalty and friendship to patriotism, but what really preoccupies the two central characters, Arianne and Luc, is the passion and agony of first love. Every other action, every other desire in this book, is weighed against this all-encompassing emotion, and its effect on the lives of everyone around them is profound.
