Sidney Lanier war ein amerikanischer Musiker, Dichter und Autor, dessen Werk oft Dialekte und ein gehobenes, manchmal archaisches amerikanisches Englisch verwendete. Er wurde bekannt für seine innovative Übertragung von musikalischem Metrum und Rhythmus auf die Poesie, wodurch er eine unverwechselbare klangliche Landschaft schuf. Sein Stil zeichnet sich durch eine melodische Qualität und einen formalen sprachlichen Ansatz aus, der eine tiefe Verbindung zwischen Musik und Literatur widerspiegelt. Laníers einzigartige literarische Stimme und seine Erforschung von Metrum hallen weiterhin nach.

Have you ever wondered how much to reveal about yourself to another person? Especially when you are falling in love with someone. It is tempting and even seductive to tell them “everything” and to learn all that you can about them-~~as you pursue the depths of new found intimacies.HIDDEN PAST probes the events that precede a "perfect couple" in their commitment to each other. This psychological drama quickly pulls strangers together and provokes empathy and self-reflection in you the reader. It challenges you to think about what aspects of your past continue to haunt you. When we think about our past, how much is clear and how much is blurred? Particularly with regard to intense physical involvements, how much was about sex and how much was about love? And, how much was done out of desire and self-interest and how much because of coercion? The romantic feelings and suspense in HIDDEN PAST will arouse you and unnerve you. You may recall a relationship in which you discovered that the person you loved purposely omitted certain vital details. You may also recall some things about yourself that you have shared, and now wish you could take back.
