Matthew Clark Davison – Doubting Thomas

Debut author discusses his new book on the discrepancy between ideals and stereotypes

In-Conversation with Ashley Nelson Levy 

By turns rueful, humorous, angry, and wise, Doubting Thomas marks the debut of an important writer.

Teacher Thomas McGurrin is an openly gay man at a private primary school when he is falsely accused of inappropriately touching a male student.

Although cleared of the accusation, he is forced to resign while also amid a potentially life-changing family drama.

Matthew Clark Davison’s novel, Doubting Thomas, explores the discrepancy between the progressive ideals and persistent negative stereotypes among the privileged regarding social status, race, and sexual orientation.

 

Matthew Clark Davison is a writer and educator living in San Francisco. He earned a BA and MFA in Creative Writing from San Francisco State University, where he now teaches full-time.

Ashley Nelson Levy‘s work has been published in BOMBZYZZYVAElectric LiteratureLit HubCatapultFourteen Hills, and elsewhere. In 2015, she co-founded Transit Books, an independent publishing house with a focus on international literature. Immediate Family is her first book.
