Professor and Poet Laureate Emanuel di Pasquale presents us with a marvelous new volume of his essays and poems on this question, of Natural Love, and the Unnatural Attacks Against It. He draws upon Melville's Billy Budd, from Blake's poems about youthful virgins, from the struggles of Hawthorne's Hester, with a beautiful child from a man not her husband, and from Lawrence's Lady Chatterley, trapped in a marriage to a cruel and impotent man. di Pasquale also draws upon the clinical understandings of the late Wilhelm Reich, a primary advocate and scientific investigator of natural love, to remind us of what we are missing, have lost, and risk to continue losing. Emanuel di Pasquale has brought back to life these often forgotten authors and their important core writings and message, on the central role of love in sexuality.
