Critics Review
“A tale set in the Delta, Tatum’s novel is also about the delta—the change, the difference—she movingly and tragically tracks in the lives and dreams of people she brings so memorably to life. As with any consequential novel that demands our attention, as this one does, this book highlights the cost of caring, and for that matter not caring, about the resources, natural and otherwise, that give value to our lives.”—Joseph Di Prisco, author of My Last Resume and Subway to California
“The war for water has come to California’s Central Valley. When family farmers find themselves in a desperate battle against agribusiness moguls whose greed knows no bounds, the fight becomes about more than survival. In this gripping novel of loyalty, betrayal, and resilience, Victoria Tatum brings the land itself to vivid life as the most powerful character of all.”—Laura Davis, author of The Courage to Heal and The Burning Light of Two Stars
