This graphic novel tells the story of Demeter the Greek goddess of the harvest and her daughter Persephone. Demeter rules over a perpetual summer on earth where crops trees and flowers grow in abundance. Persephone young and beautiful unknowingly attracts the attention of the lonely god of the Underworld Hades. Hades kidnaps Persephone and a frantic Demeter searches in vain for her daughter. Finally Demeter retreats to her temple in mourning. The goddess's sorrow causes the crops to die and the ground to freeze. The first winter falls over Greece. As people begin to starve the other Olympian gods and goddesses try to convince Demeter to accept a marriage between Persephone and Hades. But Demeter will not give up her daughter forever to the Underworld. Finally a compromise is struck: Persephone will stay with Hades for half a year (winter). When she comes back from the Underworld to spend half a year with her mother spring returns to earth.
