The Once and Future Lake: Stories for Great Salt Lake

"A politically conscious collection making a difference in the open space of democracy."
--Terry Tempest Williams, New York Times bestselling author of The Hour of Land and Refuge

What precipitates from a receding lake? As told through this collection of essays, poems, and stories, Great Salt Lake offers far more than just its eponymous salts. It retains millennia of habitation and migration, both human and avian. The ruins of resorts rise from its bed, as do the abstract hopes of artists and the toxic byproducts of industry. Newfound understanding and determination coalesce on its neglected shores, offering means to love and conserve those parts of home that seem inhospitable.
