This heartbreakingly honest and authentic fiction will make you weep over, laugh at, and finally cheer for, mothers and daughters, sons and fathers, lovers and losers, and the human race in general. Half Wild is American fiction, and American literature, at its very best.Howard Frank Mosher, author of The Great Northern Express and Northern BordersSpanning nearly forty years, the stories in Robin MacArthurs formidable debut give voice to the dreams, hungers, and fears of a diverse cast of Vermontersadolescent girls, aging hippies, hardscrabble farmers, disconnected women, and solitary men. Straddling the border between civilization and the wild, they all struggle to make sense of their loneliness and longings in the stark and often isolating enclaves they call homegolden fields and whiteveiled woods, dilapidated farmhouses and makeshift trailers, icy rivers and still lakes rouse the imagination, tether the heart, and inhabit the soul.In Creek Dippers, a teenage girl vows to escape the fate that has trapped her eccentric mother. In Gods Country, an elderly woman is unexpectedly reminded of a forbidden youthful passion and the chance she did not take. Returning to her childhood house when her mother falls ill, a daughter grapples with her own sense of belonging in The Women Where Im From.With striking prose powerful in its clarity and purity, MacArthur effortlessly renders charactersmen and women, young and oldcleaved to the fierce and beautiful land that has defined them.
