Wounded: a novel

Author:  Percival Everett

Publisher:  Graywolf Press

Edition:  Print

Where I got the book:  Strathcona High School Library

Publisher's summary:


Training horses is dangerous  --a head-to-head confrontation with 1,000 pounds of muscle and little sense takes courage, patience, and smarts.  These same qualities allow John and his uncle Gus to live in the beautiful high desert of Wyoming.  A black horse trainer is a curiosity, but a familiar curiosity in these parts.  The brutal murder  of a young gay man, however, pushes their small community to the edge of intolerance.
