Beautiful and hilarious, tearful and rambunctious, very real, ironic, and magic-filled, Martín Prechtel’s book The Mare and the Mouse is a series of lyrical sagas in tribute to each of the native New Mexican horses that carried him through his youth on the Reservation and then again during the difficult times following his return home after over a decade in the Mayan Highlands of Guatemala.

First in the Stories of My Horses series, The Mare and the Mouse is meant to be enjoyed with crowds around campfires, especially with people who mistakenly believe that only rich people or rednecks ride horses. Prechtel credits both his own physical and spiritual survival in “modernity’s mad rush to nowhere” with the sanity of riding and living with his natural-born Southwestern horses. Not raised for show, performance, status, or money, these little horses allowed a way of living that took him flying over ravines into deep-mountain Holy places, backwards over streams, and, in general, kept alive a sparkier older spirit in an age where horses have been grossly de-natured and sadly removed from our own everyday lives after three millennia as the closest companions of our ancestors’ dreams and mythologies.

I like that the author read his own story with his own intonation and enthusiasm.

That’s what they say, when you hear it from the bubbly fountain source- “from the horse’s mouth.” Straight from the sea dripping like the first of horses, Martín re-salts us like salmon do the mountains. Some water comes to us from above and some water springs to us from below- these words give us the means to hydrate and restore the original natural vision from within. I am more in love with horses and the wide open ride than ever. The rider, and writer, the written and the ridden are magically with us in audible form- this is a treasure to share with the ones in your life who love life the most and also for the ones who need remembering of what there is left to love. Big subjects blend in here, I hope you can listen like I horse might and catch the airs and breezes that come off such a laureate mind. Who’s going to nominate Martín for the New Mexico poet laureate? He’s all shell, corn, and horse—the jeweler having become a facet of the Jewel. A deep bow round as dew on the wild rose to you and all you love Martín! Another shimmering beauty for the world—what a blessing.

From the Horse’s mouth!

This book was recommended to me by a good horse friend of mine. And, wow! Hearing all of the wonderful horse adventures mixed in with the author’s perspective on nature and the changes he personally lived through, made my heart sing. It was so joyful to listen to what made the author happy and alive.

A magical perspective on horses and living with nature
