What is a bildungsroman?
A Bildungsroman is a genre of novel that shows a young protagonist’s journey from childhood to adulthood (or immaturity to maturity), with a focus on the trials and misfortunes that affect the character’s growth.
The term comes from the German words Bildung (“education”, alternatively “forming”) and Roman (“novel”).
A bildungsroman is a growing up or “coming of age” of a naive person who goes in search of answers to life’s questions with the expectation that these will result in gaining experience of the world.

About the Author
“So here’s the little lady that started this big war.”
That’s what Lincoln said when he met Harriet Beecher Stowe.
The power of compelling writing to expand experience, open doors to new worlds and new ways of thinking, or even shared experience, compels me.
In high school when we read “On Walden Pond,” I was inspired to start this book in hopes of grasping even a little of that wisdom and brilliance. After studying Philosophy/ Anthropology (though really most of what I learned was through the Core Curriculum) at Boston University, I taught English in Busan, South Korea for 2.5 years and in Buenos Aires for 10 months, before “settling down” in gay ol’ New York. I’m what you call Openly Unconventional.
