2018 Arizona Book of the Year
Peculiar Savage Beauty is the story of a headstrong and fiercely independent young woman who charges into the heart of the wind- and drought-ravaged Great Plains in the 1930s, intent on battling the dust and healing the land. As a geologist working for the U. S. government, Rosa Jean "RJ" Evans must find her place in a small farming town that welcomes neither a woman in authority nor changes to their way of life.
Inspired by actual historical events during the Great Depression and Dust Bowl environmental disaster, Peculiar Savage Beauty is a parable about man's quest to dominate the land and nature's refusal to be conquered, about unlikely alliances and unexpected love.
