An Evening with Author Scott Cheshire

Scott Cheshire Reads from High as the Horses Bridles, an urgent, electric debut novel about inheritance, belief, and a father and son divided by a dangerous prophecy.
In rhapsodic language steeped in the oral tradition of American evangelism, Scott Cheshire brings us under his spell. Remarkable in scale—moving from 1980 Queens, to sunny present-day California, to a tent revival in nineteenth century rural Kentucky—and shot-through with the power and danger of belief and the love that binds generations, High as the Horses’ Bridles is a bold, heartbreaking debut from a big new American voice.
