Allegro Postillions

by Jonathan Keates

Massacre and revolution in the mountains of Calabria, passion and betrayal in a Venetian opera house, a web of baffled desire spun during a summer in Verona, a world where exile kills more swiftly than death itself, where innocence becomes a lethal weapon, where lies are saving graces -- this is the brittle, bizarre and menacing background to Allegro Postillions.
