The Dead in Love

By Drakinan

"The Dead in Love" plays with the boundaries between life and death. For example, as Clarimonde is a vampire, she is a creature of hybridity: one that comes from life and from death, neither fully monster nor human. It is through her hybrid nature that she is capable of traveling between the realms of life and death. Her reason for returning from the dead is love and her relationship with Romuald has been compared to the Platonic myth of Aristophanes.

Romuald, conflicted about his dual life, can also be regarded in the same manner: dead (or rather not living) during his priestly duties in the day, but alive and vivacious in the evenings as Il signor Romualdo, Clarimonde's lover.

Drakinan

Reading is my passion since my childhood. I started to write young and I was loving it. When I had my first computer I could write for hours non stop. Later, very late, I learnt English and then started to love that language and I started to make traductions. I still read alot and my favorites books are erotica and fantasy. I do love writing erotic short stories. Now I write and self-edit my books, under the pseudonyme of “Drakinan”, and then sell them. I think that litterature should not be put aside of our lives and also because reading is my passion. Everyone should read a little story once a day. The stress goes away and peace of mind come back.
