Resumen del Editor

Karla, a young painter, who lost her mother in a car crash, almost gets hit by a car. As if this wasn’t fateful enough, the driver is a carver of tombstones.

Karla Bocelli, is all too familiar with loss. At age five, she lost her mother in a car crash in the south of Switzerland. Her Peruvian father lives at the other end of the world, and a year ago, her aunt and guardian passed away. Now, at age twenty-four, the talented artist has another close encounter with death when she almost gets hit by a speeding car. As if this wasn’t fateful enough, the driver turns out to be a sculptor and carver of tombstones. Andreas, however, is anything but morbid. Quick-tempered and passionate, he exudes a rough-and-tumble energy. After a tumultuous start of their relationship, Karla comes to see in Andreas the “rock” in her life, the perfect antidote to her fears of abandonment and bouts of depression. Andreas, however, wrestles with his own ghosts: an alcoholic father who abused him as a child and his own fits of anger. Together, the two artists must confront the demons that haunt them.

Love of a Stonemason is a story about the struggle of two artists with their pasts, their families, their creativity, and their love for each other. It takes the reader on a journey full of sights, smells, tastes, and sounds from the south of Switzerland to Italy and the Peruvian Andes.
