Description

Mixing pathos and humor in equal measure, East of Denver is an unflinching novel of rural
America, a poignant, darkly funny tale about a father and son finding their way together
as their livelihood inexorably disappears.

"I was driving from Denver to the farm with a dead cat in the back seat of my

When Stacey "Shakespeare" Williams arrives at his family's farm in eastern

Mixing pathos and humor in equal measure, East of Denver is an unflinching novel of rural
America, a poignant, darkly funny tale about a father and son finding their way together
as their livelihood...
