From Volcanoes to Vineyards: Hawaii-Based Author Launches New Book from Tuscany

Jeffrey P. Mix’s new travel/humor memoir, “Have You Seen My Soulmate?” launches from Florence and Siena, Italy.

KAMUELA, HI, UNITED STATES, July 24, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — HAVE YOU SEEN MY SOULMATE?: A GLOBE-TROTTER’S BUMBLING SEARCH FOR TRUE LOVE takes readers on a global search for true love in six nonfiction essays. From Guatemala to Laos, Seattle to Hawaii, and Italy to Norway, this memoir is a blend of comedy and poignancy that explores lust, love, loss, and parenthood. Staying true to the international tone of the book, Jeffrey spent the last month in Tuscany, where he teamed up with famed Italian author, Pietro Grossi, for a series of book readings and literary events.

“Jeffrey Mix is a gifted archeologist of the heart, and in Have You Seen My Soulmate? he provides a deep dive into the caverns of eros, betrayal, loyalty and the masculine mind. The writing is clean and disciplined. The gates of feeling are permanently open. His hapless but good-hearted picaro continually roams the planet in search of fulfillment. But in the end, the real fulfillment of this resonant novel is the one received by its readers.”
Eli Gottlieb –Rome Prize and the Mckitterick Prize-winning author of Best Boy, The Face Thief: A Novel, Now You See Him, and The Boy Who Went Away

“Mix delivers a globetrotting memoir brimming with heart and humor.”
