Critiques en avant-première

Socrates is singing poetic verses to the guests of a banquet, telling them everything he’s learned about love from a mysterious woman named Diotima. The gods then collapse time. Athens in 2022 is chaotic, taken over by a dangerous riot. Two young lovers, reincarnations of the ancients, speak of the Ancient Greek types of love: Eros, Filia, Filoxenia, Philautia, Storgi, Pragma and the ultimate: Agapi. Self-love, the love of the stranger, friendship and erotic love all collide with statues of Aphrodite, protestor's chants and the Parthenon's steps, as Chaos and Cosmos watch on.

Agapi & Other Kinds of Love is hip-hop historical fiction, an epic verse novel set in modern and ancient Athens. Inspired by Plato’s The Symposium, Luka Lesson’s first narrative work is a potent and captivating adventure into an age-old phenomenon: love.
