The descriptions just made me want to live in that world. Her comparisons of the Upper World to the Under World were thought provoking and interesting. And I loved her descriptions of the Underworld. The city of New Athens, the ways the gods connected with humans through business ventures. What I really loved about the story was the world that St. Hades and Zeus agree to allow Persephone to return for 6 months each year, but she must always return to the Underworld.Ī Touch of Darkness reads a bit differently. Her mother, Demeter, begs Hades to allow Persephone to return to the land of the living.
While she is there, she eats 4 pomegranate seeds which ties her to her captor, Hades. In the myth, Hades falls in love with Persephone and traps her in the Underworld.
Clair is a retelling of the myth of Hades and Persephone.
