This week, a glowing review of Horse Show by poet Jenn Blair appeared in Virginia Commonwealth University’s Blackbird: an online journal of literature and the arts!
From the review: “Jess Bowers’s short story collection Horse Show (Santa Fe Writers Project, 2024) invites readers to visit “that little golden age between the horse and the automobile, when we still had wonder” (14), even as its narrators puncture the tableaus they artfully weave by pulling back the curtain on the strings and pulleys continually whirring outside the proffered frame.”
Check out the full review right here at Blackbird, then head over to bookshop.org to snag your copy of Horse Show!
