...Even [Helen of Troy’s] obsession with Paris was compelled by a poisoned arrow—what’s romantic about that?”“Passion,” Annabelle said, “Eros’s arrows are infused with passion.”“Oh, passion, poison,” Hattie said, “either makes people addle-brained.”She had a point. The ancient Greeks had considered passion a form of madness that infected the blood, and these days, it still inspired elopements and illegal duels and lurid novels. It could even lead a perfectly sensible vicar’s daughter astray.
