Märksõnad:
Crawford presents short, personal, and easily read essays on the life of a writer, life in a small town, and the natural and human world of a river and its surroundings in New Mexico. Though presumably intended to invoke rivers, the design of the chapter headings obscures their content. The essays are not indexed. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
