Love Unearthed

di Michael Hartwig (Autore)

Herring Cove Press, 2022

Two Roman university students, Luca and Donato, spot each other in front of an ancient Christian sarcophagus in the Vatican Museums – one that depicts Jesus as a magician. They both feel a mysterious and deep attraction for each other – one that ignites a passionate relationship set against the backdrop of Italian cultural politics. Donato struggles to come out in the face of antipathy from his father, a politician. And Luca must grapple with lingering wounds and self-doubts from an earlier relationship. The story celebrates the erotic tension of young romance in magnificent settings – Rome with its art and archaeology – and Provincetown with its galleries, restaurants, and the parade of handsome men on Commercial Street and at Boys Beach. The fast-paced plot offers a window into the dynamics of new and established relationships, as Luca's gay dads — Oliver and Giancarlo — face tests in their own marriage. Everything comes to a climax as people gather to celebrate Oliver's mothers' 50th anniversary in Ptown. Anna's and Rita's wisdom and affection guide their family and offer a reminder of the chrysalis of time and love. The story is part of a larger saga recounted in the books Oliver and Henry, and A Roman Spell. The narrative weaves together romance, art, history, archaeology, and magic for a rich and mesmerizing read.
