Fine Just the Way It Is: Wyoming Stories 3 (Wyoming Stories) by Annie Proulx
Annie Proulx turned 73 last month, and age has not softened her one bit. For almost three decades she has dazzled readers with fierce, casually brutal stories set in rural America. And her latest collection of Wyoming tales, “Fine Just the Way It Is,” excavates new riches from this golden vein.
It also drives home Proulx’s penchant for introducing sudden weather. Ice storms and blizzards undo more than one character in these nine tales. The first casualty occurs on page 8, when an old horse catcher walks across a freezing desert in search of shelter.
