Thoroughly absurd and yet all-too-real, My Way to Canossa follows four journeys that re-imagine the Middle Ages amid the political and technological changes of the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. It isn't an historical novel. It's an exploration of how the present uses the past.

In the fifty years since his tragic death in a car crash, Steve Prefontaine has towered over American distance running. One of the most recognizable and charismatic figures to ever run competitively in the United States, Prefontaine has endured as a source of inspiration and fascination—a talent who presaged the American running boom of the late 1970s and helped put Nike on the map as the brand’s first celebrity-athlete face. Now on the anniversary of his untimely death, author Brendan O’Meara, host of the Creative Nonfiction podcast, offers a fresh, definitive retelling of Prefontaine’s life.

Three monologues in verse, performed by the author. In Group Theory, a week's worth of misdelivered mail leads an apartment dweller on a journey through the refracted symmetries of self. In Parsimony, a man returns home after a car crash, drugged up and teetering on crutches, to find that a strange new neighbor has moved into the back room behind his kitchen. In Teratology, the distant arching dome of a train station looms over four stranded travelers, four strangers trapped together for a long night.
