He & She

Więcej o książce

Roxolana had it made. With Mr. Perfect at her side and a university degree all wrapped up, she had everything a career -minded mother-to-be could wish for. That was until her marriage started to disintegrate, throwing her into deep personal turmoil, and she finds herself returning to the Carpathian Mountains, her childhoods cradle, hoping to rediscover love, security and the inner piece she always felt there. Before she reaches her destination, she awakes in Mavka's kingdom - a realm from the depths of Ukrainian legend. As the ancient story goes, the love of all humankind has been kept safely somewhere in this kingdom after it was banished from the rest of the world by Benedict - the embodiment of all the world's evils. At the outset, a goddess of Mavka's kingdom proceeds to guide her through a series of pitfalls and traps set by its inhabitants, all seeking to prevent those from the rest of the world from discovering the true meaning of love hidden within the realm. Through her trials and encounters, she gradually comes to understand that love is the result of developing one's own inner richness, and that it is not stored in heaven as preached by Benedict.
