2012 Eric Hoffer Book Awards for General Fiction Honorable Mention 2011 Utah Book Award Finalist "Maximilian Werner is a fresh and grounded writer, a welcome and original new voice." -THOMAS MCGUANE Crooked Creek takes place during the latter part of westward expansion and chronicles the lives (and deaths) of the Wood family.

Preston, Sara, and Jasper end up in the Heber Valley of Utah, where they seek the support of Sara's Uncle Neff until they can be reunited with Sara's mother and father. But from the moment they ride into Heber, Preston and Sara learn that life in the valley is not as it appears, and that no matter how far we run, we cannot escape the past.

Autorenporträt
Maximilian Werner is the author of the award-winning essay collection Black River Dreams, the novel Crooked Creek, the memoir Gravity Hill, the memoir/natural history Evolved, the essay collection The Bone Pile, and the book of poetry Cold Blessings. When he is not fly fishing on one of his favorite western waters, or wrist-deep in the garden dirt, or searching the wild places of Montana for wolves and grizzlies, he is at home writing or in the classroom teaching and trying to help humans live up to their potential as a species.
