‘Danielle Beazer Dubrasky and Karin Anderson are expert guides to this territory. Let them and this book bring you home.’
—JOANNA BROOKS
Blossom as the Cliffrose: Mormon Legacies and the Beckoning Wild features original poems and prose by writers who are faithful, non–faithful, believers, heretics, converts and de–converts, dragged in or forced out of the Mormon faith. This dynamic collection demonstrates the breadth, complexity, and diversity of a Latter–day Saint legacy of commitment to natural place and challenges readers to examine the myriad ways deeply rooted heritage shapes personal relationship with landscape.
