A Sweetless Love: A Trilogy: Anișoara, Rozica, and the Return of Prodigal Sons (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781971138299)

The author of this book, David Kimel, despite the national and international events and developments he has witnessed throughout his life - events that should have saddened him - remains an optimist. Through this book, he invites his readers to take a step back in time, into communist Romania in the years following the Second World War.

A Pandora's box is opened in this ruthless X-ray of a society, where the author paints a stark portrait through his characters - tracing lines of despair and tears, flames of pain and injustice, hatred and revenge, but also love and hope, the rebirth of new beginnings, and the adventure toward new heights. The everyday life depicted in the story carries the fresh flavor of human experience, giving the text an unexpected authenticity.

The heroes of this novel manage to break free from the relentless curse of the plots woven around them like a spider's web. Even though they are left temporarily weakened and emotionally scarred, they ultimately find balance and inner peace through faith, love, and courage.
