Description
A fresh, modern retelling of Longfellow's famous love poem "Evangeline", "Anxious Hearts" tells the story of Evangeline and Gabriel, two teenagers who live in the idyllic village of Acadia. On the day that the young lovers are to be wed, their village is attacked and the two are separated. Thus begins an epic search for the two to be reunited. With dreamy, romantic flourishes reminiscent of Francesca Lia Block and even Baz Luhrman, "Anxious Hearts" tells the ultimate tale of angsty, unrequited love.
