Bluff and Vine Bethany Snyder

Travel the length and breadth of the Finger Lakes in this fourth edition of Bluff & Vine. Gather with 25 writers who offer here poignant renderings of western and central New York's beauty, history, and ineffable personality. In their poetry and prose, you will hear the voices of rockstars and superheroes, of young women coming of age and keepers of old wisdom. You will hear voices of grief and of joy. You will recognize the voices of your family, of your friends, of your fellow citizens. In these striking, funny, and moving original works, you will hear the voices of a people who define resilience-a people who keep creating in the direst of times, who keep dreaming in the harsh glare of reality.
