A memoir of startling emotion and grace, Burning Fence is the story of the men in Craig Lesley’s family: absent father, Rudell, tough stepfather, Vern, adopted son, Wade, and Craig Lesley himself. Their story is one of hardship, violence, and cautious, heartbreaking attempts toward compassion. Lesley’s fearless journey through his family history provides a remarkable portrait of hard living in the Western states, and confirms his place as one of the region’s very best storytellers.
