Widow’s Peak
This review was published in the September 2, 1997, edition of the Village Voice . The review was written by Carol Sklenicka.
Tess Gallagher is best known as a passionate lyric poet ( Portable Kisses Expanded is her most recent collection) and perhaps second best as the widow of Raymond Carver. Since his death, she has embraced the role of widow and nurtured his reputation along with her own. Gallagher, like the narrator of one of her tales, loves "how life overlaps its own footprints with question marks at times, as when a legend overwhelms history, or history . . . waterfalls past anyone’s individual accounting." In some of these stories she makes deliberate references to Carver’s tales. "Rain Flooding Your Campfire" is a boldly self-conscious, possibly tongue-in-cheek attempt to lay question marks over his much anthologized "Cathedral." Playing around with Carver’s original characters, Gallagher makes the narrator female and leaves out – of all things – the cathedral, in favor of a more surprising epiphany. Is her story the "real one," as her narrator claims? Surely no one who believes there’s truth in fiction really needs to ask that question – yet Gallagher sets us up so that it’s impossible to read certain of these tales without her late husband’s work in mind. Several of the richly nuanced stories in Owl Woman Saloon are about widows, who try desperately to overcome history and make their stories their own. One woman contemplates either buying a gun or taking a lover; another undergoes a brief, pleasurable separation of her body and soul. In "Coming and Going," a woman who learns of a lawsuit against her husband’s estate sorts through a tumult of emotions, from anger – "’I’m glad Nyal didn’t have to bear this,’ she found herself saying . . . but what she really meant was that she was sorry she was having to bear it alone" – to forgiveness. In these and other stories, Gallagher shows how love grows and changes even after one’s partner has died.

and Other Northwest Fauna
This review was published in the August 31, 1997 edition of the . The review was written by Sherri Hallfren, a director of the Napa Valley Writers’ Conference.
To read "At the Owl Woman Saloon," the new collection of stories by acclaimed poet, fiction writer and playwright Tess Gallagher, is to enter the overlapping worlds of the Pacific Northwest: Loggers and hairstylists are represented, as well as professors and writers, and most of them live near the forests, within hearing distance of the sea. The 16 stories present an extraordinary range of voices and concerns. Written in Gallagher’s luminous, flexible prose and rooted in the small realities of life, the stories often expand into metaphysical meditations. Gallagher explores male and female points of view with equal sensitivity. In "The Red Ensign," a woman at a beauty salon sits with her head in the washbowl, watching two male customers who have encroached upon this heretofore all-female sanctuary. "Did they think it said ‘Owl Woman SALOON?’" she wonders. "Saloon or salon – you walk in once way and come out another." Even in this story, grounded in the details of hair spray and the acrid stench of perm solution, rises out of the ordinary as the narrator considers the beauty salon’s namesake, the Owl Woman herself, a great Papago healer who holds the spirits to their graves by day so they can go out by night.

Write on one of the following topics: Topic A. How does the story communicate the narrator's attitude towards the writer Gallivan? Does this attitude undergo any change in the course of the story? Explain. Topic B. The story ends with what the narrator describes as "one of those crossover moments where life overflows, yet somehow keeps its shape." What does that consist in here, and what are some of the facts in the story that precedes it that contribute to the fuller meaning and power of that moment? Topic C. Gallagher has described one of her major preoccupations in her poetry as "how memory works or doesn't work in the creating of 'what matters' in our lives." What does the story "Rain Flooding Your Campfire" suggest about "what matters" in our lives? How does it do this? Does this have anything to do with the working of memory in this case? Topic D.

John Paul Riquelme, ed. Tess of the D'Urbervilles , by Thomas Hardy. Boston: Bedford Books/Case Studies in Contemporary Criticism series, 1998. Pp. 606. ISBN 0-312-10688-2 Reviewed by Samuel Lyndon Gladden Published 20.2.2001
John Paul Riquelme's edition of Tess of the D'Urbervilles: A Pure Woman Amidst the weaknesses of the series, however, Riquelme's edition of Tess stands ascendant, for the editor's selection of secondary materials, as well as his contribution of three essays and many of the bibliographies throughout, offer provocative discussions about the novel and a wealth of sources for undergraduates who wish to pursue further study of Tess . The references Riquelme glosses in his footnotes touch on a diversity of topics, among them literary, cultural, and Biblical references; explanation of Church doctrine and law; discussion of historical events and mythological archetypes; definitions of unfamiliar terms, and translations of dialect. In short, Riquelme's notes make a long and sometimes difficult novel quite accessible for the undergraduate reader and do much to ferret out what lies deep in this, the novel Riquelme's Introduction suggests Hardy regarded as his masterpiece. The Case Studies in Contemporary Criticism series exists for classroom use, and teachers will adopt books in the series, I believe, according to whether the critical material provides expansive and accessible coverage of contemporary treatments of the work in question. As a whole, the series succeeds in terms of the former but fails in terms of the latter, and Bedford's edition of

    She Wipes Out Time
    Tess Gallagher
    She wipes out time
    She would like to mail a postcard to
    the place she was born. Not just to anyone,
    but to the postmaster. “When I stopped to
    see him they said he’d gone out into
    go looking for him.” I gaze across America, across death
    in the wide sweep of farmland, woods, rivers and caves
    I explored as a child by horseback.
    “A thousand acres,” she would say, restoring them to herself and bequeathing them to us. “Your grandfather had a thousand acres.” That sentence, still a kingdom. The land gone, but the words of it sustaining, as if those acres—the slack, timbrel memory of them—somehow allowed one to carry an expanse of loss. But who needs a thousand acres? Better to have the thought without the bother, to walk the mind under walnut trees on the slope behind a barn that has long since fallen away—as the mind falls away with the roots exposed so the dry tendrils of small bushes that cling bird-footed to air remind us that air itself is a soil apparitional to desire. I too want to go back. To go

    These fish have no eyes
    these silver fish that come to me in dreams,
    scattering their roe and milt
    in the pockets of my brain.
    But there's one that comes
    heavy, scarred, silent like the rest,
    that simply holds against the current,
    closing its dark mouth against
    the current, closing and opening
    as it holds to the current.
    Fear of seeing a police car pull into the drive. Fear of falling asleep at night. Fear of not falling asleep. Fear of the past rising up. Fear of the present taking flight. Fear of the telephone that rings in the dead of night. Fear of electrical storms. Fear of the cleaning woman who has a spot on her cheek! Fear of dogs I've been told won't bite. Fear of anxiety! Fear of having to identify the body of a dead friend. Fear of running out of money. Fear of having too much, though people will not believe this. Fear of psychological profiles. Fear of being late and fear of arriving before anyone else. Fear of my children's handwriting on envelopes. Fear they'll die before I do, and I'll feel guilty. Fear of having to live with my mother in her old age, and mine.
