The bewitching Patrician, could be worshiped as a semi-goddess or as a High Priestess by the pagans of her time, if she wasn't a Christian, and the invigorating Steward of her immense heired fortune, would be the most sought-after bachelor of Imperial Rome, if he hadn't been a Slave.
When they became lovers, their thoughts dared not touch the strings of their future against the moralistic pathogens of the Aristocratic Roman class; neither did they examine whether this utterly real and inevitable love was a forbidden fruit that would keep them out of paradise, or the very nectar that would draw them to its center, and transform them into timeless role models.
Is an anti conformist love a martyrdom, or does it lead to one?
Which Love was more outlawed during the 3rd century AD in Rome? A humane, between two different social classed people, or a Divine, towards the new spreading and rising Faith of the Catacombs?
Boniface & Aglaida, became for each other the unexpected breath of their mutually entrenched destiny. Who were their powerful enemies and who were those that came across their path in Rome's Aristocracy and the Catacombs, in Athens, Corinth, Icaria, and Tarsus? Why are they celebrated as a unique Saint couple?
This is one of the most romantic, astonishing, and spiritual synaxarion, ever narrated to our times.
The writer, after years of academic-level research of all established historical sources available, discovered the couple's traces in Rome, Greece, and Minor Asia, crossed it with other contemporary events and known figures along their path, and resurfaced in full their amazing story.
Genre: narrative biography.
Soon as an e-book, soon in Greek
