The Bequest: The Enhanced Edition

Upon turning thirty, a woman receives a package containing two documents forbidden to her since her teens-her foretold bequest. Stunned by what she reads, she gives up her career to pursue getting this material published! She must.

Now she is tasked with devising a narrative arc to bridge these documents but, to frame them properly, she finds it necessary to create a spiral lattice of interwoven perspectives.

Emotionally riveting, The Bequest is also an intellectual feast, filled with quiet literary jokes and both veiled and overt allusions to the works of Shakespeare, James Joyce, Vladimir Nabokov, John Fowles, Pink Floyd, and Nicole Krauss.
