Author: Carys Davies
To read Carys Davies’s West is to encounter a myth, or potent dream—a narrative at once new and timeless. It is an exquisite, slender first novel set on the American frontier about a restless widower who heads west on a foolhardy and hazardous expedition in search of unknown animals, leaving his fearless young daughter behind to fend for herself at home.
