"Jesus instructed us to forgive those who have wronged us seventy
times seven times," Brother Vito Fortunato teaches the boys in his
high school religion class, but it's Vito himself who has the most
trouble with forgiveness: trying to forgive the Church, the gay
community, and most of all, himself. Just a few months from his
final vows as a Brother in the Catholic Church, Vito finds himself
at a crossroads, torn between his spirituality and his sexuality as
a fully out and proud gay man. Will a summer of volunteer work at
an AIDS center in San Francisco-and a love affair with Gabriel, a
recently divorced landscaper-help Vito decide his calling-and his
future? Seventy Times Seven is a poignant, sexy, funny, and
romantic novel set in the early 1990s about a young man's struggle
to integrate his religious beliefs with his sexual desires. The gap
between sexuality and spirituality is punctuated throughout the
novel with quotes from the Scripture, and from song lyrics from
Prince and Madonna, artists who merged the two worlds in
provocative and groundbreaking fashion.
