{"product_id":"the-italian-letters-9781933512471","title":"The Italian Letters","description":"\u003ci\u003eThe Italian Letters\u003c\/i\u003e lies in the sensuous curvature of ancient, 20th and 21st century Italy. The sequel to \u003ci\u003eThe Cairo Codex\u003c\/i\u003e follows the adventures of anthropologist Justine Jenner after she is expelled from Egypt in the wake of discovering the diary of the Virgin Mary. Exiled into Tuscany, Justine finds herself embroiled in three interwoven stories of discovery: the long-lost letters of D. H. Lawrence to her great grandmother, Isabella; an ancient tomb revealed the origin and migration of an ancient people pre-dating Rome; and the genealogy of the Virgin Mary and Jesus. While shaken by the frank revelations in Lawrence's letters and the intimate relationship between the primeval Etruscan's and Jesus' mother, Justine must confront her own sexuality and yearning for personal freedom. The second in a trilogy, \u003ci\u003eThe Italian Letters\u003c\/i\u003e is riveted with literary, religious, and archeological history and international politics, each narrative magnifying and altering the meaning of the others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e West Hills Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781933512471\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Linda Lambert","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38014817763509,"sku":"9781933512471","price":13.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_8e58b80a-4f67-455b-894f-c689c4147d74.jpg?v=1609150347","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-italian-letters-9781933512471","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
