The Owl on the Road to Medford: Stories of birds, black-tails, and a broken heart

In this genre-blending novella, a small wildlife rehabilitation center in Oregon is the setting for seven connected short stories. Written by an award-winning fiction author who is also a former wildlife rehabilitator, these stories reveal the ways human and animal needs conflict and intertwine. The narrator is passionate about the orphaned and injured wildlife under his care, but his own heart needs mending as well. Screech owls and fawns, a weasel and a friendly crow-all have lessons for the people they encounter. If you enjoyed H is for Hawk by Helen Macdonald and On the Road with Del and Louise by Art Taylor, you will appreciate the authenticity and wry voice of The Owl on the Road to Medford.The title story received the Oregon Writers Colony 2014 first prize for short stories and was published in CALYX, A Journal of Art and Literature by Women, Summer/Fall 2016 , Vol. 29:2. Ann Littlewood again won first prize in the Oregon Writers Colony short story contest in 2016.
