White River

In the vividly imagined stories comprising White River - written in a prose of lyrical clarity and spareness - Will Bless evokes the stony uplands and rocky glacial streams of Vermont, divining the inner lives and sometimes haunted dreams of its inhabitants, and their search for meaning on uniquely American landscapes. These tales span from the mid-nineteenth century to modern day, illuminating both the lives of soldiers and the historical soul of the central Green Mountains.
