description: On her 120-acre homestead high in the Colorado Rockies beloved writer Pam Houston learns what it means to care for a piece of land and the creatures on it. Houstons ranch becomes her sanctuary a place where she discovers how the natural world has mothered and healed her after a childhood of parental abuse and neglect.In a work as lucid and invigorating as mountain air Deep Creek delivers Houstons most profound meditations yet on how to live simultaneously inside the wonder and the grief . . . to love the damaged world and do what I can to help it thrive.
