Hunting Geese - by Sarah Rau Peterson (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Hunting Geese by Sarah Rau Peterson is a short story collection that features characters as multi-layered as Montana herself. The unnamed protagonist in "Hunting Geese" grapples with life choices and his just out-of-reach family while positioned on the banks of the frigid Yellowstone River awaiting the descent of geese. "She Would Have and The Needing Place" addresses the dynamics of a complicated father-daughter relationship told from each perspective while skirting the issues of generational gaps and aging. "Wednesday's Child's" narrator wonders what she, as a mother, did to push her daughter away, and "Chickens" is about, well, it's about chickens.
