Description

Entertaining, Smart, Fun, Philosophical...It's a mystery written in the style of magical realism. At the end of World War II in Umbra, Italy an American soldier proposes to a beautiful Italian girl. To his surprise, her family insists the couple drink the family’s magical wedding wine before they marry. This wine gives those who drink it with their betrothed visions of their entire futures together. The two drink and after experiencing beautiful visions, they marry.

In 1999 the couple’s adult children are a priest, a businessman and an unmarried daughter. Each begins to question the source of power behind the now-famous wine’s magic. Is the wine that they are trusting supernatural? Is it powered by faith, love, hope or psychopathology? Could there be an organic explanation? A competitive investigation ensues.

Trusting Wine is an engaging and entertaining novel in the style of magical realism. It examines love and our fear of love. It allegorically explores faith versus religion. With humor and affection, it analyzes the dynamics of this special family and of marriage itself.
