"Bruce E. Whitacre's ability to capture this support network and the extraordinary efforts of Jennie Hicks in a manner that reaches beyond the usual literary or arts reader makes her story appealing to a much wider audience." - Diane Donovan, The Midwest Book Review.

Discover the captivating story of Jennie Hicks, a pioneer and painter, in The Elk in the Glade. Set in the small towns of the Hi-Line in Nebraska, this heartfelt collection of narrative poems takes you on a journey through Jennie's struggles and triumphs as she navigates life in a close-knit community in the early 20th century. Follow Jennie as she moves from Ohio to the harsh landscapes of the Hi-Line, facing challenges like financial hardship, loss of loved ones, and the realities of pioneer life. Through it all, she finds solace and joy in pursuing her passion for painting. Witness Jennie's relationships evolve with her daughters and community members. The plot spans decades, filled with turning points as Jennie's artwork gains recognition across the country. She becomes a renowned artist, receiving praise from the likes of Grandma Moses. More than a story of Jennie's life, The Elk in the Glade explores universal themes of family, adversity, and the resilience of the human spirit. Jennie's journey reminds us of the importance of art as a means of expression and finding beauty even in the harshest of circumstances. A great choice for art enthusiasts, family book clubs, literary societies, and history enthusiasts.
