Fragments from a Notebook of the Wilderness

Suzanne Gardinier

0/5 ( ratings)

Equal parts roughness and elegance, ugliness and beauty, epic scope and lyric intimacy, this novel tells the interwoven stories of northeastern lives in the early US republic, from the first mills to the beginnings of jazz, as seen through the blurred, fragmented messages of a notebook someone saved. While vivid characters pass through in their generations, from the halls of Congress to the Native towns of western New York, the cleared fields of Massachusetts to the early jazz clubs, the real protagonist is the history of the United States: hopeful stranger, grieving ghost, weaving its way among tragedies, promises, and sources of creative power, searching among the possibilities for renewal, transformation, and resurrection.

Pages: 132
