Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Literary and true, this is the hardest--and best--kind of book."--JULIE NICHOLSBefore Us Like a Land of Dreams follows a disheartened mother traveling an evocative route through the arid West. As her narration fades, the ancestral dead speak directly: a ragged Mormon boy yearns after a Shoshone family. A defeated polygamous wife shuts her mouth for good. A hoarder's queer son demolishes the artifacts of his lonely Idaho childhood. Descendants of British squatters sustain family delusions until a devastating suicide shatters their royal dreams. An elite colonial clan gradually awakens to the stark blue of the Great Salt Lake. The dead yield no answers, but they conjure vivid mortal moments set in iconic--and diminishing--American places. A disheartened Utah mother travels through the sites of her arid Western ancestry, where the dead speak their stories directly.
