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' 50\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e 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 \u003cem\u003eOliver and Henry\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eA Roman Spell\u003c\/em\u003e. The narrative weaves together romance, art, history, archaeology, and magic for a rich and mesmerizing read. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Herring Cove Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/23\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798218112684\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.57d","brand":"Michael Hartwig","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45439042519221,"sku":"9798218112684","price":16.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_2bde7035-8bdd-4982-865d-e47318fb1c1b.jpg?v=1749003195","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/love-unearthed-9798218112684","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
