Sonnets from the Sarcophagus & Wizard's Visions

By John Salonia

LOVES THAT TRANSCEND TIME AND SPACEPublished together for the first time, newly annotated and revised, SONNETS FROM THE SARCOPHAGUS and WIZARD'S VISIONS perfectly complement each other. These two sonnet-sequences tell connected stories of love and longing, beauty and horror, as the sundered souls of lovers seek each other across the trackless gulfs of infinity and eternity. In SONNETS FROM THE SARCOPHAGUS, the first of these stories told in verse, an ancient Egyptian priest accidentally resurrected from the dead seeks the reincarnation of his lost love - only to learn that the gulf that sunders the living from the dead is deeper than all time and wider than all space . . . In the second tale, WIZARD'S VISIONS, a powerful sorcerer named Zalna seeks the plague-stolen spirit of his wife through the endless corridors of time and space. Caught in traps for the flesh and spirit, Zalna must struggle to transcend visions both beatific and horrific as he voyages far beyond the barriers of his world to seek his lost love.AUTHOR'S NOTE: The sequel to Zalna's tale can be found in the title story of in my collection APPARITIONS AND OTHER DARK DOINGS.
