Description

"When Susan Richards writes about horses and the interactions of the people involved with them, she brilliantly captures the characters, equine and human."--Maxine Kumin

Strong, startling, funny--these stories are rich in their feeling for the human, natural, and sometimes supernatural world of Kentucky.

Susan Starr Richards has spent most of her life raising racehorses in central Kentucky, and writing. She has been a NEA Fellow in Fiction. Her stories have appeared in The Kenyon Review, The Sewanee Review, Shenandoah, The Southern Review, and in Thoroughbred Times, as winner of their first National Fiction Prize.
