Winner of the PEN USA Award for Fiction. An admirable, steelyeyed collection of stories and vignettes featuring a family of ranchers.Publishers WeeklyOn Hells Bottom Ranch, a section of land below the Front Range, there are women like Renny who prefer a little Hell swirled with their Heaven and men like Ben, her husband, whos gotten used to smoothing over Rennys excesses. There is a daughter who maybe plays it too safe and a daughter plagued by only halfwanting what life has to offer. The ranch has been the site of births and deaths of both cattle and children, as well as moments of amazing harmony and clear vision.Set in the unpredictable West, these stories remind us that we cannot escape the messiness and obsessions of ordinary life.Patricia Henley, author of Hummingbird HouseDisplays the talent of a brilliant, new writer.The Rocky Mountain NewsWith the rugged beauty of the Rocky Mountains as backdrop, Pritchetts spare yet richly evocative stories portray the stark reality of life on a Colorado cattle ranch, where three generations of one family tend the land and animals, devoting and losing themselves to an existence few would understand or choose to follow . . . Regardless of whether the songs she hears are sung by a meadowlark or a jailbird, Pritchett excels at juxtaposing the sensuous with the severe, the rapturous with the repugnant.BooklistThe stories jump back and forth in time, but their message is clear: this familys ties are as quixotic, fierce, and enduring as the land that binds them together.School Library Journal
