Five Lessons in Love Mary Carmen

Trinta, a teacher writing in 2110, looks back on four other lifetimes and her evolving relationship with Tulu.

In the Peru of the Incas, Trinta and Tulu worked together as astronomers, watching the skies so they could advise the Inca and the High Priest. Then, Tulu became pregnant with Trinta?s child, and their lives changed forever.

In Spain during the Inquisition, Trinta was a Jesuit priest and his cousin Tulu was the wife of a Grandee. They worked together to solve Trinta?s inability to respect others.

In nineteenth century America, Trinta and Tulu were officers in the Union Army and, later, surveyors for the Transcontinental Railroad. Each was responsible for the other?s finding love.

In twenty-first century America, Trinta and Tulu were employees of a great corporation. They helped each other to win love and learn responsibility.

By 2110, work was not necessary because most goods and services were provided by machines. In that lifetime Trinta and Tulu shared a body.
