PILGRIMAGE FOR EIGHT

​The Medievalist
Neo-Nazis have weaponized the Middle Ages to promote their racist agenda, brandishing medieval symbols during their marches. Two history grad students team up with an eminent art historian in a scheme to embarrass and disrupt the Alt-Right for years to come.  A satire about the uses and abuses of history, about forgeries and propaganda, and about the fight against racism in and by academia. First draft ready, March 2020; querying agents and publishers.

Aesop's College
A novella. Plato's Republic meets Orwell's Animal Farm. First draft ready September 2019; querying agents and publishers.

In the summer of 2017, a group of strangers followed in the footsteps of eight medieval monks, who in 1230 AD traveled north from their priory in France to found three new monasteries in the far reaches of Scotland. 
​
PILGRIMAGE for EIGHT is a memoir of that modern-day pilgrimage, told through a historian’s eyes. It’s a tale of people from diverse backgrounds and cultures undertaking a journey that challenged them physically, emotionally, and spiritually, and forming profound friendships that would last well beyond their 1300-mile trek.
