Loving the Beautiful Boy

Haec est unde vita venit!The hymns poems and prayers in this collection were written as part of a devotional practice centered on Antinous the deified beloved of the Roman emperor Hadrian. They explore different aspects of Antinous' nature and record a journey toward understanding what spiritual devotion is - what it means to love a god and feel loved in return. Poet. Wordsmith. Mythweaver. These are but a few of Merri-Todd's appellations titles she has earned in devotion to her gods. Love and adoration permeate every word of every hymn offered in this long-awaited collection. A hymn for every festival - a hymn for every day for any and every occasion one might desire to sing praises for the Beautiful Boy for beloved Antinous. - Jay Logan contributing author to Queer Magic: Power Beyond Boundaries
