Emily White: Hot Passion, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Emily White's Hot Passion unfolds like a festival painted in vivid manga frames-wine-dark nights, glowing lanterns, and emotions that rise like music in warm air. Her stories explore desire not as a simple impulse, but as an ancient force that transforms the soul and blurs the boundaries between reason and intoxication. In the title tale, the spirit of Dionysus seems to drift through a lavish banquet celebrating the old festival of Anthesteria. Philosophers, poets, and artists gather around overflowing cups while laughter mingles with the scent of ripe grapes.

Then the servant Vibia enters carrying a jug of wine, her presence suddenly silencing the painter Parrhasius beside the host. For a moment the room holds its breath, as if a new story has stepped quietly into the scene. Eyes follow her movement, music falters, and the night begins to feel charged with something unpredictable and electric. In Emily White's world, passion is not merely felt-it transforms everyone it touches.
