Ringing with an exquisite lyricism, Dale Champlin's amazing Callie Comes of Age-a novel in the form of poetry-will hold you in thrall. Set in the harsh ranch country of the American West, which shapes her life, Callie's story evolves from an early childhood filled with tenderness and a strong sense of belonging into a grim tale of a sexually precocious and fiercely independent adolescence, in which glimmers of a dark secret begin to emerge. The deftly nuanced narrative will keep you on edge of your seat all the way to the end.-Ingrid Wendt, Oregon Book Award winner in poetry, author of Evensong
