Coyote in the Mountains and Other Stories

Short stories follow Coyote, a Vietnam veteran, in his relationships with a variety of people, each summed up with an animal name. Comprised of nine stories that read sequentially, the book reads like a novel, a fable of the New West, with Coyote drifting through the lives of domesticated characters in a resort community in the Northern Rockies. The book is beautifully accented with illustrations by artist Julie Scott.
