Threatened Species

by Jeff Vande Zande

"Threatened SpeciesJeff Vande Zande knows the midwestern mind, and depicts it masterfully in all its despair, stubbornness, and wisdom. The desperation and longing of his characters is inextricably bound to the beauty of the landscape around them. His honest prose will break your heart and even give you a little faith." — Bonnie Jo Campbell, author of American Salvage and Q Road

"Jeff Vande Zande's lean and heartbreaking stories will stay with you long after you've read them. They are about people struggling to do the right thing against all odds, while learning the hard way "how to keep going, even when things fall apart." These dispatches from the front lines testify to the courage required just to live an ordinary life." — Jerry Dennis, author of The Living Great Lakes and A Place on the Water
