About this listen
Ursula Pastors and Anthony Moliere are top-flight academics in their respective fields. They arrive at a new university campus to wide acclaim, but they share a deep, dark secret—they are both vampires. Although Anthony is committed to Ursula, he transgresses the cardinal rule of vampire academics—he falls in love with his graduate student. The affair ends when Jessica becomes pregnant.
Anthony and others engage in a series of dialogues that highlight wide range of ethical issues that are currently being debated (and not being debated) in modern universities. These include feminism, the Me too movement, gender identity, black lives matter, artificial intelligence as well as the limits of secularism in academic research.
As Anthony struggles to reconcile his beliefs with his choices, will he find faith, hope and possibly redemption?
