Riceland - Cl Bledsoe - Bog

CL Bledsoe's collection shows us a boy's perspective on a dying farm, his dying mother, and by extraction, a dying way of life. Bledsoe paints an unsparing picture of a bleak time, but manages to leave the reader with an inexplicable hope. He tells a tale in poetry about a seismic shift in the American landscape, replete with the damage done to those on the fault lines.
