“Just like its characters, this proves to be a ruminative, poetic and rugged read...an odyssey that is equally tender and brutal...your tale speaks of a land in perpetual suffering and shell-shock, a place that needs healing and a chance to understand its past...Under the seemingly ordinary hood, there's a mature, quiet drama humming along here; a tragedy that trails the length of the American West and then some.”
