Michael Hartwig is a Boston and Provincetown-based author of LGBTQ fiction. Hartwig is an accomplished professor of religion and ethics as well as an established artist.

Hartwig grew up in Dallas but spread his wings early on – living in Rome for five years, moving to New England on his return, and then working in the area of educational travel to the Middle East and Europe.

His fiction weaves together his interest in LGBTQ+ studies, ethics, religion, art, languages, and travel. The books are set in international settings. They include rich local descriptions and are peppered with the local language. Characters grapple not only with their own gender and sexuality but with prevailing paradigms of sexuality and family in the world around them

Great Storytelling

A masterfully crafted tale that seems to weave parallel elements perfectly. One could argue it is contrived, but it doesn’t feel that way as one is deep inside the tale. Rich characters, settings, and plot! An absolute delight.

Fascinating story that affirms the courage and vision of two people (and others). It carries the story beyond WWII to life after the war and the challenges Guy and Sonia faced over the years. Informative, engaging, and heartwarming.

Dan Brown Doesn’t Disappoint

Secret of Secrets is classic Dan Brown. Fast paced, edge of your seat, drama! But, it is also full of thoughtful, paradigm changing information, all carefully researched. Bravo!
