Description
On her 120-acre homestead high in the Colorado Rockies, beloved writer Pam Houston learns what it means to care for a piece of land and the creatures on it. Houston's ranch becomes her sanctuary, a place where she discovers how the natural world has mothered and healed her after a childhood of parental abuse and neglect.
In a work as lucid and invigorating as mountain air, Deep Creek delivers Houston's most profound meditations yet on how “to live simultaneously inside the wonder and the grief... to love the damaged world and do what I can to help it thrive.”
