"Meditative and energizing, fierce and loving, balanced and rhythmic. An invitation to welcome faith and nature, and to embrace the tensions and beauty that spring from every crack and cranny along the way."

--FOREWORD REVIEWS

"When I ask my Mormon-Jewish daughter when she feels most Mormon, she tells me, 'When I am outside, in the canyons, in the mountains, in the West.' The beloved community of writers assembled here articulates a thousand reasons why so many of us feel this way. Danielle Beazer Dubrasky and Karin Anderson are expert guides to this territory. Let them and this book bring you home."

--JOANNA BROOKS, author of The Book of Mormon Girl and coeditor of Mormon Feminisms and Decolonizing Mormonism

"No idea looms larger in the Mormon mind than wilderness--a pure, unspoiled place that gives people refuge and prepares them for revelation. Blossom as the Cliffrose gathers some of Mormonism's most creative voices to testify to the power of wilderness spaces--in the land, in our faith, and in our lives. The essays and poems in this volume come from the heart of the wilderness and are themselves both refuge and revelation."

--MICHAEL AUSTIN, author of Reading the World and Buried Treasures
