Review:

"Haslam s recent collection of short stories, "That Constant Coyote," represents one of the most powerful literary ensembles I ve encountered in quite some time. Geoffrey Dunn, "Santa Cruz Magazine""

Put a cowboy hat on a microphone and you have Gerald Haslam, whose short stories have recorded the landscapes, the working-class customers and, above all, the voices of Bakersfield area for two decades now. Okies, Indians, blacks and Latinos; ranchers, roughnecks and a few who got education but could never get the dust and oil and tule fog out of their blood Haslam lets them all sound off. Los Angeles Times Book Review"
