And It Will Be A Beautiful Life (2021)
Craig Lancaster
"Craig Lancaster's And It Will Be a Beautiful Life is full of just that: life. Its tangles and complications, its ruts and wrecks, its lights and losses-and, yes, its beauties. This is the real stuff. Life, on the page."
Sins of the Bees (2020)
Annie Lampman
"Grief in the green bounty, passion in the deep desert, the regrets of our ancestors coursing in our veins—Sins of the Bees is about the ways we in the American West try and fail, and yet might keep trying, to be in more sustaining relationship with ourselves, one another, and all the land that holds us. The writing here is breathtaking, as is the vision. This is a striking debut."
