The Pursuit of Love

Andrew Giuliano Lo Russo spent the majority of his life pondering the mysteries of his deepest emotions. Without any outlet to express himself, he slowly found comfort in using painting and music as a method of exploration. Although these mediums were useful, it wasn’t until he began writing down his thoughts that he was able to fully grasp the idea that part of the mystique behind these mysteries were connected to his longing for love and acceptance. Whether or not this exploration will result in a solution is not the reasoning behind his writings, but rather, it’s simply an emotional outburst which he believes many of us also battle with. In the end, the poems in this collection offer comfort to those who share similar questions about their own place in the universe.

Andrew Giuliano Lo Russo

Andrew Giuliano Lo Russo currently lives in Southern California. Originally from Milan, Italy, he spent the majority of his life in the United States, frequently travelling back to Italy to visit family. Having grown up away from relatives, he has always felt a disconnection from life and is in constant search for his true self. This life-long exploration has found its way onto the canvas, music and most profoundly in poetry.
He began writing poetry over 20 years ago as a method of recording his deepest thoughts, emotions and fears. When he writes, he feels overtaken by an unknown energy – an energy forcing him to search for life’s mysteries and delving deeply inside his consciousness. He views his poems as tiny capsules capturing particular thoughts in time, grasping for the unknown, pondering true love and often questioning its existence.
