" David James Duncan, author, The River Why and My Story as Told by Water Rebecca Lawton's work " . . . is both mirror and map, a reminder that a life can take the shape of the river itself--fierce and tender, restless and serene, asking us only for our unwavering fidelity to living, moving water."
