Product Description
The Illuminated Desert is a stunning dialogue between painting and prose by two daughters of the Colorado Plateau: Terry Tempest Williams and Chloe Hedden. This is more than an "abecedarian" or Alphabet Book. It is an exquisite rendering of the red rock canyons of southern Utah and the natural history that evokes a poetry of place. The audience for this book is the audience of the desert itself, beginning with the children and shared with adults in discovery and delight.

"The Illuminated Desert will entertain readers of all ages with images and poetic descriptions of the Four Corners area unlike any that have been published before about the American Southwest."
" The Illuminated Desert brings the desert into the hands of people young and old who will want to hold it and search its pages for the symbols of life and fantasy that are so much a part of this region."

I was simply unprepared for the beauty and creativity of this book. Anyone that loves the canyons, river and desert would be incomplete without a copy of this book. Terry Williams has used wonderful imagery in her text, and Chloe Hedden has captured the essence of the desert and Canyon lands magic.
Kudos to both!
