Born with the withered -body of a 70-yr-old man, Max grows physically younger each year, while his intellect matures.

Because he appears to be a different person each time they meet, Max is given three chances for true love. A Story of self-discovery and sacrifice set against momentous historical events - including the Great San Fransisco Earthquake and World War 1 - The Confessions of Max Tivoli is a spellbinding materpiece.
