À propos de cet audio
Listen to the novel New York Times best-selling author of The Alice Network Kate Quinn called "easily one of the best novels I have read all year". A critically acclaimed, multilayered romance set in the perilous days of World Wars I and II, where gods hold the fates - and the hearts - of four mortals in their hands.
They are Hazel, James, Aubrey, and Colette. A classical pianist from London, a British would-be architect turned soldier, a Harlem-born ragtime genius in the US Army, and a Belgian orphan with a gorgeous voice and a devastating past. Their story, as told by goddess Aphrodite, who must spin the tale or face judgment on Mount Olympus, is filled with hope and heartbreak, prejudice and passion, and reveals that, though war is a formidable force, it's no match for the transcendent power of love.
Hailed by critics, Lovely War has received seven starred reviews and is an indie best seller. Author Julie Berry has been called "a modern master of historical fiction" by Bookpage and "a celestially inspired storyteller" by The New York Times, and Lovely War is truly her masterwork.
©2019 Julie Berry (P)2019 Listening LibraryCe que les critiques en disent
"This fascinating, gorgeously written novel of World War I will grip you and remind you that the greatest danger is closing our hearts to love." (Nancy Werlin, National Book Award honoree and New York Times best seller)
“Julie Berry writes the past as if she lived it.” (Jennifer Donnelly, New York Times best-selling author)
“Scheherazade has nothing on Berry.... An unforgettable romance so Olympian in scope, human at its core, and lyrical in its prose that it must be divinely inspired.” (Kirkus Reviews)

Captivating and Brilliant
This books is just outstanding. It’s narration is sophisticated and fascinating! I thoroughly enjoyed how the Olympians’ squabbles once again impacted the lives of people during WWI.
This book read like a unique experience and I for one loved it. I thoroughly enjoyed the audio version and how it animated each of the Olympian gods (Aphrodite, Ares, Hephaestus, Apollo, and Hades), as well as the four main characters during WWI, Audrey, Colette, James and Hazel.
