Many times when a novel portrays every day life circumstances and relationships it reads slow and, unless saved by incredible diction, is a bore. Cherokee America manages to both portray real people living in real times and still COMPEL you to keep turning the page.Verble has meticulously researched this book and it shows. But it never feels like you've suddenly been plunged into a dry lecture about 19th century Cherokee society. She indeed shows and doesn't tell. From beautiful things like how a question is answered with a story from the past to how Tribe is an entity both past and present to ugly things like the life of blacks at the time within the Nation to the limits placed on women (black women more so than Cherokee women). In all ways, it was balanced, nuanced, and empathetic. I enjoyed it greatly!
This wonderful novel is full of fully-detailed characters, suspenseful and exciting plot, and beautiful descriptions. It is a revealing look into a too-often ignored time and place in American history. As her essay on lithub.com (and the novel's afterword) reveals, the story is based on the author's family history -- one can only hope for more from her in the future!
Some books need a bit of patience as the author slowly unfurls the complexity of the story and of the characters on the written page. Cherokee America is one such book that demands the reader follow the lead of the author as she fills in details that a quicker narration might leave unexplored.The main story is that of Check, a strong willed, soon to be widowed mother of five headstrong young boys who faces life with calm resolution and intelligence. But, more than simply the story of one character, the book gives each of the many characters in the book their own voice and their own view on the events as they unfold. The threads of events are carried forward from the point of view of changing protagonists and the cumulative effect is a story of real depth and beauty. This does mean that you need to keep track of everyone and this can be bit of a hurdle as you slowly get to know who's who in this massive tale.The story takes a long time to get moving but, if you can be a patient reader, is it a rewarding one. The first actual crisis doesn't arrive until around page 100 and there were times when I wondered if the book would simply be a poetic tribute to the life of the Cherokee people after the Civil War. However, the events begin to ramp up and, with the plethora of characters, it takes a good fifty pages or so just to keep the different characters straight in your head, so perhaps launching into full swing at page 100 makes sense! By the time the first crisis occurs, you have begun to care deeply for each player even as their flaws and frustrations and, in case of the young men, their shenanigans are exposed. The intertwined familial lines and histories are complex and often difficult to keep track of and I hope that the final book (I read a galley) will have a family tree to help the reader keep things straight! What does come through are the strong connections and loyalties between the families that are passed down in oral histories through the generations.The story is based on real people and it left me wanting to learn more about these histories that so little has been written about. I have not yet read Verble's Pulitzer prize winning book 'Maud's Line' but will definitely be seeking it out after this marvelous book.
The cover art for Cherokee America drew me in before I picked up the book. A lone woman on the prairie, with the wind tumbling through her shawl. It evoked that same sense of loneliness and longing as Andrew Wyeth's painting, Christina's World. I wanted to know this woman's story, and after reading the synopsis was hooked. Cherokee America opens in a late 1800's small town, as Check (Aunt Check to most folks) runs errands at the local general store. This simple setting, the hub center of the town, serves as a surprisingly perfect opening. Not only do we get a solid sense of Check's no-nonsense way of viewing her neighbors and townsfolk, but also her compassion for the downtrodden. I felt like I was there with Check as she rescues a dying infant's life.This is the Cherokee Nation after the Civil War, after the land was ravaged for supplies from the armies, and the people are still attempting to cover the scars, both over the land and within themselves. There are people like Sanders, who walked the Trail of Tears and came out of the War with next to nothing, besides two wives named Nancy. There's Puny, a former slave whose grief turns into a desperate quest for gold and a way to change his circumstances. And Check, who misses her Tennessee home, who is raising her children with a dying husband waiting at home. They keep to the Bible, while not wholly believing in or trusting all it represents. Claiming the whites' religion hasn't saved them from walking the trail to this new land, and it can't save Check's abolitionist husband an early grave. Still, Check keeps her farm running and family together as best she can. Rather than split into chapters, the book is divided by titled scenes, interconnecting the story in a refreshing and fluid way. While usually told from Check's perspective, we also see through the eyes of secondary and even minor characters like Check's sons, Sanders and the two orphaned boys. As the story unfolds, pieces of a larger puzzle come together in an exciting way. The author, a member of the Cherokee Nation herself, uses the Cherokee alphabet and language through the book, which lends another layer of immersion to Verble's story. I loved learning about Cherokee culture, alongside the darker aspects on both sides of the Civil War and all that came after. Big events often have small beginnings. In the case of Cherokee America, a baby's death drives a man to gold, a fever that quickly encompasses the whole town. Check and her family learns they are some of only a few who weren't aware of the Wartime legend. And like it or not, the Singers are quickly embroiled in the inevitable conflict that comes after. Check struck me from the moment I first met her and I've found her character and spirit have lingered with me after. Great heroes aren't always the most obvious, and Check's determination, her love for her family and her people no matter their skin color or creed is what truly saves the day in the end. An expertly crafted picture into the heart of America after the Civil War, Verble's historical drama is sure to capture readers to favor strong characters and compelling plots. Stunning and heartrending in turn, this is a story you won't want to miss.**I was provided with a copy of Cherokee America by the author and this is my voluntary and honest review.**
