“These are tales of mystery, joy, desperation, hope, insanity, and queries about the universe—all sharing a Southwestern theme.”—Rosanne Boyett, Cibola Citizen
“A great compilation of stories from our region.”—Las Vegas Weekly
“An intense, arresting anthology.”—Roundup
“D. Seth Horton and Brett Garcia Myhren have once again proven that the Southwest produces much of our best contemporary fiction. This anthology of new and established writers serves as a testament to that storied tradition.”—Justin St. Germain, author of Son of a Gun: A Memoir
“Distinctive stories, culled from the nation’s best literary journals and magazines over the previous three years. . . . The stories create a provocative conversation about the way life is lived now in the Southwest and how our increasingly homogeneous culture is still powerfully shaped by the history, environment, and mythology of place.”—K. L. Cook, author of The Girl from Charnelle: A Novel
