Yes, agreeing with others, this is definitely a 500 page novel of the ilk of Dr Zhivago, do not what the law( the church) say, your love will forever will be hers and vise verse, no matter what the background ( war, peace, etc)
Only you could do this J
Amazing
Yours, B.

It's got to be Dr Zhivago. The wonderful Julie Christie and Omar Shariff. Seen it at least six times over the years. Every type of frustration and crazy thrown at the screen in the frozen backdrop of Russia with fur coats into the bargain. Tragic ending.

thank you, Corset,

I am going out on a limb and say this one is somewhat shorter than "War and Peace." The ending is happier, though.

Jacob, you are prolific in your writings, my friend. Your muse truly does not give you a break. I am both envious and in awe of both the production and quality of your art. Continued success and inspiring others to do the same and speak their truth and aspirations in the art of words.
