<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In this eclectic collection of essays, Rullman explores the tangled landscapes of a culture in rapid transition. From our complicated relationship with emerging technologies to the bombing of Nagasaki, from a skydive to honor the life of a Native American Chief to a solo hike for solace in the remote Sierra backcountry, he invites us to examine the truths swept under the American rug, and to question our role in perpetuating the contradictions, humorous conundrums, and retail pathologies of our evolving world. Gritty, vulnerable and often hilarious, Rullman's writing is born in the borderlands and draws widely from history to remind us that--even in an era of widespread uncertainty--poetry still matters, beauty is found where we pause to embrace it, and in the long arc of human experience our questions outlive the answers.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Rullman is a true Romantic, in love with the wild, weird wonder of it all."<br /> --from the Foreword by Jim Cornelius</p><p>"There's an empty barstool between Mark Twain and Tom Waits. That's where Rullman sits. He doesn't try to make sense of the world so much as point out the absurdity of it."<br /> --David Alton Hedges, screenwriter and winner of the Motion Picture Academy's Nicholl Fellowship</p><p> "Rullman has a distinct voice; a voice as dry as sand and pungent as sage in full bloom. He casts his anchor in the deserts of the Western Outback and travels easily between the barrooms of Nevada and the boardrooms of high rollers and New Age entrepreneurs. Give this read a chance. You sure as hell won't be disappointed."<br /> --Rick Steber, author of Fall Down Angel, Caught in the Crosshairs, Buy the Chief a Cadillac, and winner of the Western Heritage Award, Indies Award for Excellence, and Western Writers of America Spur Award for Best Western Novel</p><br>
