THE ORIGIN OF AVA

by ANNIE LAMPMAN

​

 

Three lives are drawn together by fate, flight, and the healing power of nature. Subtly suffused with myth and woven together by ravens, The Origin of Ava is a timeless and timely reminder that however hard we try to break with the past, we may just be setting up a collision course with our truest selves.

THE ONCE AND FUTURE LAKE

—NOAH BASKETT, CEO,
Salt Lake City Public Library

IN THE CROSSWINDS

by Eli J. Knapp

​

In the Crosswinds is a probing, big-hearted quest for belonging on a tumultuous planet. Like Aldo Leopold and J. Drew Lanham, Eli Knapp, an ecologist with a philosopher’s soul, draws inspiration from our feathered brethren to illuminate essential conservation truths. In a common loon or wood duck, it turns out, is the preservation of the world.”

BITTER CREEK
by Teow Lim Goh

​

Bitter Creek, told with tension and power, recounts the competition between newly arrived Chinese immigrants and the white men already present in the space between Colorado and Wyoming. In the midst of environmental destruction is the colonialism of the country and the burden of racial hatred, all spoken behind the ethical consciousness of this brilliant writer.”
—LINDA HOGAN, A History of Kindness
