"This is a poet of importance, a poet who knows this western American landscape and renders its hidden stories and details-ranch life, work, horses, trails, red-tail hawks-in absolutely gorgeous language, weaving a complex portrait of place that is by turns elegiac and starkly realistic.

The reader is left with the glorious sensation of 'understanding almost' everyday moments of haunting beauty before they disappear, quick on the wing." ~ Megan Baxter, author of The Coolest Monsters "Bowden's poems regard memory, family, the natural world-classic poetic subjects-but handle them with such quiet authority, such vivid delicacy, they shine." ~ Jefferson Carter, author of Birkenstock Blues
