In “In the Valley,” a farm boy is haunted by a
mysterious naked woman in the night, and discovers he’s not the only one she
visits.
STORY EXCERPT:
…On a leany homemade shelf on the wall
next to his gun rack was what looked like a line of little dolls, and I moved
closer to get a better look. I saw that they was made out of dried up animal
parts, chicken guts mostly, all twisted and tied together with hair and fishing
line. He’d put little clothes on them. Pants and shirts and even hats.
They looked like our neighbors,
the other farmers and ranchers.
“Made ’em myself,” Blum said
proudly as he come through the door.
I just nodded cuz I didn’t know
what else to do.
“Gonna display ’em.”
“At the fair?”
“No. I’m settin’ me up a
museum.”
I nodded like what he said made
sense. He was doing that staring thing again.
“Wanna see it?”
—In
the Valley by BENTLEY LITTLE

Bentley Little is a Luddite with no access to the internet, which means that he still
believes in such outmoded concepts as facts, truth, justice, and democracy. Oh,
and science. He still believes in science.
