OMEROS
Published in 1990, Omeros is Saint Lucian writer Derek Walcott's epic poem that explores the Caribbean human experience as he reimagines Homer's Iliad and Odyssey with Achille and Hector as local fisherman in St Lucia. It's beautiful. Bonus content -- Melvyn Bragg's episode of Southbank Show on Walcott -- a delightful hour with the writer in St Lucia.
Johnny Cash Sings Ballads Of The American Indian
A wonderful lesser known JC Album -- Johnny doing his best to wrestle with the feelings he had visiting reservations by recording an album of ballads about Native Americans. Come for the Peter La Farge covers and stay for Johnny's original songs with lyrics like "I see an eagle ... floating in space"
Sarajevo Blues
Written during the siege of Sarajevo in the early 1990s, capturing the surreal and brutal reality of life under siege -- Sarajevo Blues by Semezdin Mehmedinović is a collection of poems I keep coming back to -- it's heavy but that's good.
Used 14.5" Lazy L Saddles Team Roping Saddle
If you need a western saddle...Lazy L Saddles are my favorite. One time I had to ride someone else's rig for a day and when I got home I hugged my Lazy L.
