Book Synopsis: "Mary Horton gazed at Tim, dumbfounded. Had he lived two thousand years ago, he might have served as model for the greatest Apollos of all time. Instead of standing with such superb lack of self-consciousness in a city street, he would have lived forever in the cool, smoothly satin curves of pale marble, an object of awe for generations upon generations..."
Mary Horton and Tim could not have been more different, separated by every social prejudice, every taboo. Yet they both were strangers in a world that had no place for them. And for them both their only chance of happiness lay in creating a world of their own -- a world of love.
