The Scholar of Moab is a 2011 novel written by Steven L. Peck. The novel received an AML Award for best novel in 2011.
Criticism
The Scholar of Moab was part of Common Consent's essential readings in Mormonism and is read in at least one course on Mormon literature. Rosalynde Welch writing in Dialogue called it "a wonderfully strange, deeply philosophical narrative that interrogates the nature of the first person" while drawing on Mormon traditions of diaries and regionalism.
