Doing a Bit of Bleeding

A substantial literary work that leaves readers satiated yet challenged. This collection is literature of the American West in the truest form—it is generational; it is romance; it is political; it is humorous; it is of and for the individual. Liederbach’s characters struggle to make sense of their pasts, smart men and women whose relationships are tinged with detachment, people who’ve been stung by cultural anomalies like religious fervor and sudden violence--Bleeding is a study of the frailty of the human heart and its capacity for love amid irresolvable disappointment and extraordinary beauty.
