An experimental fiction, I Become a Delight to My Enemies uses many different voices and forms to tell the stories of the women who live in an uncanny Town, uncovering their experiences of shame, fear, cruelty, and transcendence. Sara Peters combines poetry and short prose vignettes to create a singular, unflinching portrait of a Town in which the lives of girls and women are shaped by the brutality meted upon them and by their acts of defiance and yearning towards places of safety and belonging.

This memoir is a unique insight into the personal journey and thoughts of one pilgrim who travelled across the Camino de Santiago twice. The pilgrimage from the south of France to Santiago, Spain, is not just about the places to see, cathedrals, or sites, but an invitation to meet travelers along the way and hear their stories. What drives people to walk 500 miles and how does it change them? More Than All the Steps is an invitation to walk with me and other pilgrims as we experience the crunch of dirt under our feet and the bonds created with others and the trail.
