They say some loves travel through time and are fated to meet over and over again. For Maddie, an art therapist, who wrestles with the “peculiar feeling” she has lived previous lives and is being called to Italy by voices that have left imprints on her soul, this idea is intriguing. Despite her best efforts, however, proof of this has always eluded her. That is, until one illuminating summer in Italy when Maddie’s previous existences start to bleed through into her current reality. When she is introduced to the Crociani family—a noble clan with ties to the seventeenth-century Medici court that boasts of ancestors with colorful pasts—she finally meets the loves of her life. One is a romantic love, and another is a special kind of passion that only women share, strong amongst those who have suffered greatly yet have triumphed despite it. As Maddie's relationship develops with Artemisia Gentileschi—an artist who in a time when it was unheard of to denounce a man for the crime of rape, did just that—Maddie discovers a kindred spirit and a role model, and just what women are capable of when united together. In a journey that arcs back to biblical days and moves forward in time, Maddie encounters artists, dukes, designers, and movie stars as well as baser and ignoble men. With Artemisia never far from her side, she proves that when we dare to take control of our lives and find the “thing” we are most passionate about, we are limitless and can touch the stars.

“With her newest book, Fortesa Latifi acts as a sort of time travel guide for her readers, inviting them to bear witness to the beauty, tragedy, and legacy of some of the greatest love stories history has to offer. Throughout No Matter the Time, her poems offer an intimate glimpse of how love grows and sustains and, sometimes, burns out. It is a book that will surely offer hope for the lovers and comfort for the heartbroken, which is to say it does its job wonderfully.” – Claire Biggs, Editor + Writer at To Write Love on Her Arms“Latifi has crafted a beautifully tender, eye-opening collection that feels like the most intimate history lesson you’ve ever received. Her understanding of human relationships and the vulnerabilities within them is so sharp, you’ll wish she had written the story of your last great love. Brilliant in concept, No Matter The Time is the kind of book you can read multiple times and find something new and meaningful in it each time.” – Ari Eastman, author of Bloodline & writer at Thought Catalog“Fortesa Latifi writes of drunken, star-crossed lovers who damage themselves, each other, and everyone around them. She writes of desire and loss, crime scenes and broken doors disguised as love, affairs so grandiose and breathtaking that at first read we mistake them for, in her own words, romance instead of survival. “Dying for love is still death./there is no beauty to be found here,” Latifi claims in “From Anne Boleyn to Henry VIII”. Throughout this collection of letters, the reader dies a thousand different ways for a thousand different loves, but, contradictory to Boleyn’s words, there is beauty to be found here. And it’s everywhere. In every page.” – Meggie Royer, Writer + Founder & Editor-in-Chief at Persephone’s Daughters
