  • Brokeback got us good.

Loyal Blood was in Postcards and the horse-haunched woman was in "The Half-Skinned Steer"   a short story in Close Range, the first book of Wyoming stories.  Did I understand your question right?



You are a true Proulxian, Clyde!! Now, you name some Proulx characters for us to match with their stories!

I happened to see the September issue of Oprah's magazine, and Annie's new book, Fine Just the Way It Is,  is featured as one of "The Three Fall Blockbusters" along with books by Phillip Roth and Marilynne Robinson.  8)

From the short review, titled "The Devil and Annie Proulx," it seems clear Annie has not lost her dark edge.  ;)
