Thomas Tyndar: The Astonishments of a Gentleman

By David W Stull

"...Upon a pale horse rides a boy at his traces.
His jacket is blue but his britches are dun.
Forward he gallops, but backwards he faces;
in satin he hides, but it's leather he's won..."

After being unable to save his rough-and-tumble father from a fiery death, young Thomas Tyndar forsakes his Romani roots to become a gentleman in eighteenth-century England.
Burned and in rags, Thomas increasingly assumes both the clothes and manners of his betters, and though well-favored and sturdy, he finds himself on the outside, looking in on the world he wishes to inhabit.
Becoming more and more embroiled in the consequences of his choices to attain his place in society, he will find that success comes at a fiercely transcendent cost.
