Terry Tempest Willliams

One of the details that stayed in my mind was when she told about her dream of a beautiful light. And after that, her dad told her the "truth" behind it and that the light that she saw was actually not a dream but in reality the cause of the many deaths of her people. She started to link everything together and then it made sense why most of her family died from cancer one way or another. This detail, specifically lead to the larger picture that Utah was being used to test bombs and much of the lives in the area were affected and suffered. These lives were ignored by the government; outside people had no idea of what it was like to live like that.
