Red Bloom

"I am destined to be an inconvenience of the worst possible kind - an ideological, moral nuisance; like a bird caught in the foundations of a building I will be fixed, permanent, un-removable, a reminder of the corruption on which all this grandeur stands." A short work of alternate historical fiction, 'Red Bloom' is comprised of the imagined last diaries (and days) of Sarah 'Sally' Hemings, an enigmatic and disruptive figure in the history of the United States.
