Yonder moves Corder’s philosophical journey from the past to the present and contemplates the role of personal and historical change in the shaping of the present. . . . It is readable, and as entertaining as a quiet front porch conversation on a midsummer’s evening.
—Dallas Morning News
Corder is a kind of down-home Kafka whose fingers skim the air in hopes of netting some pollen from a phantasmal twentieth century life.
—Kirkus Reviews
Don’t read Yonder in a hurry. Savor its cadences, its rich rhetorical flourishes, and embrace the deep swells of hurt that release the sweet, thankful awareness of being deeply alive.
—Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Charged with visceral intensity, Corder’s lyrical reminiscence conveys a sense of the personal narratives each of us constructs to give shape and meaning to our lives.
