Description
This Tender Land A Novel by William Kent Krueger is a gripping and poignant tale that follows four orphans on a life-changing journey during the Great Depression. In 1932, the Lincoln School is a place of hardship and struggle, where Native American children are forcibly separated from their parents and sent to be educated.
Forced to flee, the four orphans - Odie, Albert, Mose, and Emmy - embark on a perilous journey down the Mississippi, seeking a place to call their own. Along the way, they encounter a diverse range of characters, from struggling farmers to traveling faith healers, each with their own stories of loss and resilience.
This epic novel is a deeply satisfying tale of self-discovery and the search for home, set against the backdrop of one unforgettable summer. With its enthralling narrative and big-hearted characters, This Tender Land is a worthwhile read for anyone who loves historical fiction and stories of hope and survival.
