UCLA Extension Alum Publishes Third Novel

The Encino-based British native has just published his third novel, The Glorious Whore of Milan. Set in Renaissance era Italy, it tells the tale of a plucky heroine who takes on the suffering caused by the indifference of the Catholic Church.

In some ways, Maisner’s latest work ties back to the 1970 Italian movie Story of a Woman, written and directed by one of his UCLA mentors, the late Leonardo Berkovici.
