Abstract
Inspired by the works of Charlotte Perkins Gilman, European snake folklore, and "wished-for child" fairy tales, "The Greeley Variations" features several generations of women and the Victorian house they live in. The novel explores prospective parenthood, maternal legacy, and repeated patterns (visual, genetic, and psychological) as haunting experiences.
