Although a lovely written story, the main characters are selfish, self-centered and cowardly. The story of Dora and Luka is of love that is deep and eternal, unchanged by time, two halves of the same soul. However, their characters are selfish. They are unable to view or comprehend the effects that their actions have on the people around them, justifying their irresponsible and deliberately cruel actions on eternal love. Dora's actions, if squinting just so, might be considered justifiable. Luka's actions, on the other hand, are cowardly, and in being so, he is selfish. Unable to deal with situations in a mature and adult manner, he opts to faint or taking irresponsible actions to rectify a situation born of irresponsible actions.

Natasa Dragnic has succeeded in writing a novel where the characters are true to their artistic selves. Sadly, the characters are not to my liking.
