His beloved Joliette had long ago stopped living. Yes, death had them both, but even in death, passion knows no bounds. She would love him in the end, for it was just in her nature ~ to love the dead.
Antiquity follows French Archeologists Joliette Deneauve and Olivier Botton as they grapple with the mystic implications of a discovery hidden deep within the Siberian Mountains. As Joliette faithfully pursues her scientific objectives, she becomes bewitched by the spirit of a long dead God-King. Fantasy. Reality. The land of the living and the land of the dead. Faith blurs the lines between. Can Joliette trust in Botton, trust in her own heart, or will her obsession with death draw her farther into the darkness beyond?
Bending and Blending Genres, The Splendor of Antiquity, a story of fact versus faith, of magic and science with a dash of adventure and romanticism, takes us on a journey through the ages as our ancient and ghostly narrator teases at the tangled threads that bind our relationships with each other, with our faith, and with the world, yet undiscovered. Joliette’s lapse in faith and the all-encompassing sadness that leads her into physically and emotionally dangerous situations is not that uncommon. Antiquity is a story about that struggle, the uniquely human struggle to find the light at the end of what seems to be an endlessly dark tunnel. To find life after tragedy.
