@DASHWOOD_BOOKS: “Please join us tonite, Oct 19th 6-8PM, at Dashwood for the launch & booksigning for Jim Mangan’s ‘THE CRICK’ / published by Twin Palms. In the crumbling community of a fundamentalist Mormon Sect, the boys who remained behind reinvent themselves as modern-day cowboys. ‘The Crick’… is a meditation on religious succession, patriarchal systems, zealotry and fraternity… Mangan’s pictures transport the reader into an alternate reality of the boys’ making: where they explore the rugged terrain of southern Utah, northern Arizona and southern Nevada on horseback, emulating old-time explorers of the Western frontier.”

artlovers editorial note: and, that’s “European Colonial” / old-time explorers, to just to include a little ‘radical’ contemporary, pro-indigenous . . ‘salt’, into the great USA desert mix of many, many grains of sand, time, and politics, including the way, way-back / Ancestral Puebloans, Mogollan, Hohokam, and Patayan peoples.
