Less of a romance and more of a psychological and social study expressed through poetry. Every choice is messy and inextricably linked other people and pressures. 

They can never make me hate you, Marguerite Gautier.

It was an enjoyable book and the ending was really sad (just as I expected) but something was missing. Maybe it’s the way it was written or maybe it’s just the translation I read.
