Resumen del Editor

Expansive.., and eloquent.., at once grave and majestic. In the final volume of the 'Home' trilogy, it is 1974 and we are in the windswept territories of the southwest USA.

Written with terse lyricism, and cinematic detail, and wry humor, Dirt and Snakes is a tale of the
American West like no other in contemporary literature. This searing, extraordinarily evocative
narrative opens with Gus Alamo, a wayfarer; a Cowboy; a seeker of all that is the open road,
traveling to the borderlands of northwest Texas in order to release his prized Mustang mare back
into the wild so that she may find a worthy stallion to sire her young.

And so begins an odyssey worthy of the western frontier, stimulated by motion, and by connection,
and by tragedy. Along the way, we will encounter a Race Car Driver that is embroiled in an interminable
search for victory, and an Indian Chief that has pledged his soul to the isolation of the rugged wilderness,
and a stray Dog with a peculiar and tenacious desire to achieve celestial greatness.

Beautifully constructed and fully-realized, Dirt and Snakes speaks to the conflict alive in all of us;
a scary illumination soothed and nurtured by a restless baby soul endlessly seeking the warmth of
a place called, Home.
