Ranch on the Pecos

Microcosm USA

By Sue Littleton

". . . a deliciously visual, autobiographical poetic sketchbook of her childhood that was spent on a sheep ranch in West Texas. The lines of these stories are as dry and as sparse of ornamentation as the land itself. Ah, but those who appreciate the subtleties of the desert are sure to recognize the deep character and exquisite beauties these quietly strong poems convey."
Ric Williams, "The Austin Chronicle"

"You find much of the warm memories you would expect here, such as her homemade rag dolls, cheerfully clothed in feedsack material, but you also find harsh surprises, of the kind this land delivers."
Anne Morris, "Austin American-Statesman"
