Novels
Well, 2019
Well is about two women who fall in love and start a family in a post-9/11 America whose scars are both public and painfully intimate. Diane Ascher is a playwright and director whose carefully-staged world is disrupted when she casts Nora Hazel as the lead in one of her plays. Their collaboration becomes romantic, a passionate respite interrupted by the random act of a lone wolf. In their quest for solid ground they occasion a home from what has been left standing.

Things that Remind
Inspired by Albert Camus’ The Fall, Things that Remind threads a conversation across a distinctly American landscape as two women, an itinerant memorial consultant and an alcoholic litigator, navigate the blindspots of memory, history, and intimacy.
