Δάφνης και Χλόη

"Δάφνις και Χλόη" by Longus is a Greek pastoral novel written during the second century of the Roman Empire. Set on the isle of Lesbos, it tells the story of two abandoned infants raised by shepherds who grow up together tending flocks. As they mature, Daphnis and Chloe fall in love but don't understand their feelings. Their innocent romance unfolds amid abductions, pirates, and divine interventions, leading them through a journey of discovery about love and themselves in an idealized rustic world.
