About:
'De Innamorati' by Midori Snyder is a fantasy novel set in a vision of Renaissance Italy, focusing on the curses that plague the protagonists and their journey to the city of Labirinto. The city is rumored to contain a mystical Maze where one's wishes can be granted, but no one who has entered the Maze has ever emerged. The story follows multiple characters, each representing archetypes from Commedia del'Arte, as they navigate through their own struggles, passions, and desires within the labyrinthine plot. The narrative intricately weaves together themes of personal identity, masks, and perceptions, creating a complex and engaging tale that combines elements of fantasy, mythology, and self-discovery.
From The Publisher:
The frustrated in love know it, the barren women, the silent poets, the lustful priests-all those who suffer from cursed lives. By ones and twos, in carriages, on horseback, on foot, they flock to the Maze at the heart of the city Labirinto.
Five pilgrims, with their enemies, their drinking buddies, and their chance-met companions, journey across a richly imagined Renaissance Italy alive with adventures and magic, to meet in the great Labyrinth. Their adventures grow ever more baroque, comical, and magical, until they reach the heart of the Maze, and perhaps, their hearts' desire.
