view our place in the larger world. ... Do we care that gentrification leads to

characters, one lens after another. It’s a full time job, trying to make
sense of the West these days. I find that this extraordinary book helps make
that job a little easier.” – Allen Morris Jones, author of A Bloom of
Bones and Sweeney on the Rocks “Elise Atchison's prose is a vessel of precision and
depth, unafraid to draw the reader into the more shadowed crucibles of life

Atchison explores a singular dilemma: How do we live in paradise without
destroying the very thing we love? ... “I am blown away by – Andrea Peacock, author of – Ken Egan, author of
