Synopsis
Excerpt from Lost Borders Let's have done with stranger faces, let's be quit of staring eyes, Let's go back across Mohave where the hills of Inyo rise.There's a word we've lost between us we shall never hear againIn the mindless clang of engines where they bray the hearts of men.Let's go seek it east of Kearsarge where the seven-mile shadows run, From the great gray bulk of Williamson heaved up against the sun. Let's go look for Hassayampa, with your arm across my shoulders, Through the canons of lost rivers by the bone-white bleaching bowlders, Through the scented glooming hollows where the gray wolf shadows flee -Where from Sur to Ubhebe only you and I shall be;And the Word - cannot name it, but we'll learn its sweetest useIn the moonlit sandy reaches when the desert wind is loose.

Product Description
Excerpt from Lost Borders
Out there, then, where the law and the land marks fail together, the souls of little men fade out at the edges, leak from them as water from wooden pails warped asunder.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of eight stories set in the stark and unforgiving deserts of the American West. The author, clearly familiar with this arid landscape, presents a vivid portrayal of its unforgiving terrain and its profound impact on the human psyche. Each story explores different facets of life on the ever-shifting borderlands between civilization and wilderness, where characters find themselves wrestling not only with the elements but also with their own inner demons. The common thread that runs through these tales is the struggle for survival, both physical and spiritual, in a harsh environment where both nature and human nature present formidable challenges. Through its rich and nuanced prose, this book offers a deep dive into the human condition, exposing vulnerabilities and resilience with equal measure.
