Book synopsis

Set in 11th Century Europe, "Blomqvist" is narrated by the protagonist's devoted amanuensis, faithful standard-bearer, and unrequited lover, Axel Oxensteirna. Axel tells us the story of Blomqvist's search for his betrothed, but in the telling, he also bares his own struggle to find his spiritual footing in a confusing and shifting world. Part historical fiction, part mystical meditation, this Mediterranean odyssey traces the course of human history in matters that are relevant to this day. Praise for "The Actual Adventures of Michael Missing" "Outrageously inventive."-"The Literary Journal" "Meditative and powerful."-"The Hartford Courant" "Wise and wryly funny tales."-People
