by Lori Carlson-Hijuelos (Author), Oscar Hijuelos (With)

A uniquely styled memoir that blends fiction and nonfiction to illuminate the love, faith, and artistry of two American writers.

In December 1998, novelist Oscar Hijuelos and writer/editor Lori Marie Carlson were married in the Riverside Church in New York City. One love story, one Pulitzer Prize, and one untimely death later, Lori is left to unveil the creativity and faith that were at the center of their marriage.

In a narrative of recollections inspired by the setting of a Lutheran cathedral library, Lori delves into the archaeology of their union. Her memories are coupled with excerpts from Oscar's unpublished opus, Blue Antiquity, which he was writing at the time of his passing in 2013. Blue Antiquity is Oscar's distillation of a lifetime of pondering human passion, familial love, personal identity, death, and eternity.

A Writing Marriage is a literary one-off in style and story that memorializes down-to-earth love and its endurance set against a background of bright lights and certain blessings.
