Dixon, Descending (2024)
Karen Outen
"Karen Outen's gifts as a writer are many, but her triumph in Dixon, Descending is the vividness of its characters. They live, breathe, speak, and love as real people. Their anguish and their victories will stay forever with Outen's readers. This is a gorgeous and important story."
