Lyrical, tender and sexually exhilarating, The Marble Boy is a record of a man's journey through the Mediterranean. Real and imaginary, Edmund tries to come to terms with lost love.

When Edmund Payne ran from an unfulfilling marriage and a job as an art school teacher to tour the rich and evocative Classical landscapes of the Mediterranean, he began an ‘odyssey’ of the heart and the imagination.  But he was running from suspicions surrounding a relationship with a talented and sensitive schoolboy, and also from the devastation of an affair with a man several years his junior. Haunted by memories of both, Edmund journeys into exile, excited to revisit a region he knew as a young man, but this time in search of beauty, and hungry for a more lasting love.  With a keen eye for line and colour, Edmund uses his sketchbooks to record his travels, but it is from his notebooks, in which he recorded his relationships past and present, real, imagined, and longed for, that Edmund tells his story years later.  Lyrical, tender and sexually exhilarating, The Marble Boy is the record of his journey, his imagination, and his search for love.  e until, finally, he finds a new opportunity to love again. But, who is Edmund, and why is he running away?
