MARASMUS
A Novel-In-Progress
An elegiac tale of old bones breaking free. Told for the preservation of roots and for the honoring of children.
Inspired by a "disputed" series of events unearthed at abbey sites and church-run workhouses for unwed mothers: mass graves containing the countless remains of undocumented children.
Re-envisioned, the dead given voice.
Open to publishing queries.
