About this Event
"Expertly crafted and compelling . . . a literary mirror for the reader." -Rachel King, Colorado Book Award Winner.
The Divide is a collection of realistic fictions set in the Mountain West. The title is a double entendre, referring to the Continental Divide as well as the divide that often challenges our relationships. The stories concern characters making the difficult choices of life; the stakes are high for the characters and therefore for the readers as well; we read onward to find out how the characters will choose.
