In the 1820s, a taciturn loner and skilled cook travels west to Oregon Territory, where he meets a Chinese immigrant also seeking his fortune. Soon the two team up on a dangerous scheme to steal milk from the wealthy landowner’s prized Jersey cow – the first, and only, in the territory.
How It Feels

A quietly lyrical meditation on male friendship and the weight of dreams, set against the vast quietness of frontier Oregon. It moves with the pace of prose, finding poetry in small gestures and the subtle bonds between two outsiders.
