What makes a good man?
Ranchers, farmers, a looming range war, and a mysterious stranger with a violent past—for good reason, Shane is a classic Western. But when the novel debuted in 1947, what set it apart was its unusual moral center: a young boy seeing the tale through his own clear eyes. And now this culturally authentic adaptation by Karen Zacarías (Destiny of Desire, The Copper Children) holds on to the heart of its literary source while widening the lens to encompass the real Wyoming of 1889, challenging what we think we know about the American West—its people, values, myths, heroes—and our own perceptions of good and evil.
