"The Bridge at Valentine is very original and very appealing. Renée Thompson has an angle of attack that is all her own."
Larry McMurtry, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "Lonesome Dove"
"With Lonesome Dove and Legends of the Fall as bookends, The Bridge at Valentine takes a reader quickly into a woman's perspective of the American West, a place I wanted to stay until the very last page...a fine, fine story well told."
Jane Kirkpatrick, award-winning author of A Flickering Light and Sweetness to the Soul |
In this retelling of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, The Bridge at Valentine presents a realistic portrayal of life in 1890's Idaho. July Caldwell, the daughter of a Mormon sheepman, and Rory Morrow, the son of a Gentile cattleman, find themselves embroiled in their fathers' bitter feud to control the rangeland. The story conveys the message that women trapped by circumstance always have a choice, but with choice comes consequence—and sometimes, hope for the future.
