Books by Eleanor Burgess

Zoe, a black student at a liberal arts college, is called into her white professor’s office to discuss her paper about slavery’s effect on the American Revolution. What begins as a polite clash in perspectives explodes into an urgent debate about race, history, and power.

A San Francisco programmer, Will, latches onto an idea for a startup that will automate the work teachers do in their classrooms. But as the idea begins to take off, it becomes clear that Will’s new company may threaten his fiancée’s job.

A complex and compelling depiction of racial and generational divides which speaks directly to our polarised, post-truth era, as it asks who gets to tell the story of America, and how.
