The Valeries
Expat Press, 2024
A grief counselor attempts to launder the hideous exploits between his son and a famous politician through the novel-writing process and in doing so becomes a different person, a body of words. A legalistic maneuver to ostensibly guard his family's reputation via copyright becomes a plunge into a lurid spectacle of family trauma, a narrative device to yield confession from a would-be savior's crisis of faith.
