A substantial literary work that leaves readers satiated yet challenged. This collection is literature of the American West in the truest form—it is generational; it is romance; it is political; it is humorous; it is of and for the individual. Liederbach’s characters struggle to make sense of their pasts, smart men and women whose relationships are tinged with detachment, people who’ve been stung by cultural anomalies like religious fervor and sudden violence--Bleeding is a study of the frailty of the human heart and its capacity for love amid irresolvable disappointment and extraordinary beauty.

Review:
Bleeding illustrates [Liederbach's] ability to dissect the beautiful and the grotesque from the everyday banality of life. --Rocky Mountain News
Hard to read because it's so true, harder to put down. --Mary Grimm, author of Stealing Time and Left to Themselves
Liederbach's characters run wild. This is an excellent debut told with high energy prose and dark humor. --Diana Joseph, author of Happy or Otherwise
