Our Roman Pasts

Michael Hartwig is a Boston and Provincetown base author gaining quick acclaim for his gay romance novels set in exotic places around the world. Stories combine rich descriptions of historical and artistic sites - in places such as the Alps, the Amalfi Coast, and Rome - with steamy love stories where characters grapple with sexual identity at crossroads of their lives. Hartwig's stories weave together facets of his own life - his having lived in Rome, his work as a professor of sexual ethics, and his life as an artist. Plots are fast paced, filled with compelling dialogue, fascinating personalities, and thoughtful exploration of cultural shifts in gender, sexuality, religion, and culture. If you love travel, history, art, romance, and intrigue - you'll love his books!
