'Triteuch' (comprising three books: 'Cupid', 'Psyche' and 'Mors') could be perceived as both, a separate novel as well as another insight into 'War-time tale' story. This time, in the focus of lens we get a complicated yet passionate relation between the main female character of 'War-time tale', Else Hochweiler and her French life partner, AntoineCoutouz?; the relation taking place in France of the 50's until the early 60's of the previous century, where a more sensitive or more observant reader can visualize smoked Parisian cafeterias - places for unshaven youths in their black turtle-necks to vividly discuss over Sartre or express their fascination with communism. Two main characters, Else and Antoine, as already senior to the new, post-war generation on one hand try to finally enjoy their life together, unburdened, as they hoped, from common obligation or duty, while on the other still bearing stigmas of the last war. A love-erotic story with a philosophical reverie in moderate proportions.
