There was a Muscovy duck
I called Donna. She
had been a farmyard duck
but didn’t lay any eggs and was a loner.
I cradled her for hours and sang to her.
…
When I walked, I walked like Donna.
I wasn’t imitating her. She walked like me.

Hear Sallie Bingham on her new story collection, HOW DADDY LOST HIS EAR. These outrageous tales of a womanizing cowboy and his mixed raced extended family turn the myth of the old West on its head.
