Synopsis "The Horse who Bears me Away"

In the first section of The Horse Who Bears Me Away, &;The Fall,&; an assortment of characters descend inwardly to the point of personal despair. In the second section, &;Anywhere but Omaha,&; they begin, with difficulty, to see more clearly who and what they are and to climb their way out of the nadir. In the final section, &;Mutation,&; the characters embark on a path to transformation&;an awakening into a new way of seeing and existing in a world that is constantly testing the validity of their identities. This collection of poems, Peterson&;s seventh, challenges readers to consciously embrace the dark side of their American psyche and to reach past it to a new way of being at peace with both the known and the unknown, which is called freedom.
