Five young men from a small reservation in Wyoming set off on a joyride; only four survive. The death triggers years of pent-up resentments between the white townspeople and members of the Towuk tribe. Based on Edward Delaney's years of reporting on these issues in the area, the novel delivers a searing look at the exacting price of community, self-determination, and holding one's ground.

Available on July 15th. Preorder yours at https://bit.ly/3GEK98c or wherever you buy books.

Cover by

“Edward J. Delaney’s gripping new novel captures the dashed hopes and stifled ambitions that are too often avoided in telling the story of Manifest Destiny. Hard Margins is an achievement, as starkly beautiful as the landscape it describes.”
—DAVID WRIGHT FALADÉ, author of The New Internationals and Black Cloud Rising

“In this remarkable novel, we have the rare opportunity of reading about the modern-day West as it really is.”
—SALLIE BINGHAM, author of Taken by the Shawnee

“Taut and atmospheric, Hard Margins is a gripping read about people pushed to their limits—and sometimes beyond.... This fine a novel all too rarely comes along.”
—STEVE YARBROUGH, author of Stay Gone Days

I had three significant exchanges with Stanley Moss. The first was at a small brunch at the home of Daphne Merkin, my first publishing mentor. I was in my late twenties, the conversation was heady, and I was mostly quiet until it turned to me. Did I have a partner, and was he "the one?" If not, Stanley had a son or stepson who might fit the bill. "Does he please you intellectually? Does he please you sexually?" Daphne probed. "Does he please you *sensually*?" Stanley posed.

Some months after, Stanley phoned me--it seemed he might have a job opening. Would I like to edit poetry? Would I be willing to commute to Riverdale? How much did Harcourt pay me--he would pay more. Perhaps I could come and visit the press sometime. I was flattered and a bit flustered.

Nearly two decades later, I finally visited Stanley in Riverdale. He was officially seeking a senior editorial person, and I was interested. I had a hard time finding his place by car and was somewhat late to meet him. His wife and big dog led me to his old, art-filled room. This time, he waited for me to do the questioning. He seemed distracted, and the meeting was short and awkward.

It always pleases me to come upon a Stanley Moss poem and to contemplate the complexities of this beautiful and mysterious man. Rest in Always Alwaysland, Stanley.
