520    At the long-term care facility where Robert Rebein's 
       father lands after a horrific car crash, a shadow box 
       hangs next to each room, its contents suggesting something
       of the occupant's life. In Headlights on the Prairie, 
       Rebein has created a literary shadow box of sorts, a book 
       in which moments of singular grace and grit encapsulate a 
       life and a world. In the tradition of memoirs such as 
       Tobias Wolff's This Boy's Life and Ivan Doig's This House 
       of Sky, these essays bring a storyteller's gifts to life's
       dramas, large and small. Following his award-winning turn 
       on his hometown of Dodge City, Rebein takes us back to the
       high plains world where his family has farmed and ranched 
       since the 1920s. It is a world populated by feedlot 
       cowboys, stock car drivers, and farm kids dreaming of 
       basketball glory. Here too we find the darker tales of 
       damaged young men returning from war, long-haul truckers 
       addicted to crystal meth, and the sadly heroic residents 
       of a small-town nursing home grandiloquently named Manor 
       of the Plains. Whether contemplating a fiery crash at a 
       race track, coming to terms with an aging parent, or 
       navigating the last days of a beloved family dog, Rebein 
       offers a subtle, unsparing, often moving look at the 
       moments that go into making a writer and a man. Seen in 
       sharp detail, and recalled from a distance, his is a story
       of how a man can leave his home on the prairie--and yet 
       never really get out of Dodge. Included in the book are 
       two essays, "Bullet in the Brain" and "A Fire on the Moon,
       " that were named Notable Essays of the Year in the 2015 
       and 2016 editions of Best American Essays edited by Robert
       Atwan.
