Book Launch: Site Fidelity by Claire Boyles, with Camille T. Dungy
Writer, teacher, and former sustainable farmer Claire Boyles and acclaimed poet and essayist Camille T. Dungy discuss Claire’s stunning debut short story collection Site Fidelity, an intimate chronicle of women and families facing the challenges wrought by climate crisis and economic inequity in the American West. “For anyone who loves and grieves the West, who isn’t afraid to open their eyes and see her distress, these beautifully forged stories are as essential as water,” Pam Houston raves.
