BETWEEN TWO ETERNITIES

Between Two Eternities, Inscriptions Buried in an Awakened a Heart depicts a journey of self-discovery, encompassing elements of struggle, resilience, truth, and awakening. Carvalko paints a vivid picture of life’s journey, akin to an odyssey fraught with obstacles yet illuminated by moments of profound wisdom and love. The work is a collection of semi-autobiographical essays, fiction, poetry and creative non-fiction, that combine tales taken from history, heroism, romance, and loss. In its entirety the author examines a lifetime searching for sanctuary and purpose, often in the face of adversity, often struggling with self-doubt. The work highlights a journey begun as inner-city high school dropout to becoming a successful lawyer and humanitarian where he’s represented billionaires to indigents, and actively engaged in organizations such as Amnesty International, as a Congressional representative; the Sioux City American Indian Center, board member/activist; and the internationally renowned Yale Technology and Ethics working group, Interdisciplinary Center for Bioethics, Chairman. Frequently he returns to the intersections of the diverse cultures that shaped him, Azorean Portuguese, Italian and New Mexican. He has lived on the East Coast, Mid-west, and Mountain-west, traveling extensively to South America, Europe, and Asia, encountering people from ambassadors to criminals, entrepreneurs to mentors of solemn wisdom, each inspiring his writing.
