Quiet Until the Thaw by Alexandra Fuller
The debut novel from the bestselling author of Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight and Leaving Before the Rains Come."Awe inspiring . . . An ardent, original, and beautifully wrought book." --The New York Times Book Review
Lakota Oglala Sioux Nation, South Dakota.
Two Native American cousins, Rick Overlooking Horse and You Choose Watson, are pitted against each other as their tribe is torn apart by infighting. Rick chooses the path of peace and stays; You Choose, violent and unpredictable, strikes out on his own. When he returns, after three decades behind bars, he disrupts the fragile peace and threatens the lives of the entire reservation.
A complex tale that spans generations and geography, Quiet Until the Thaw conjures, with the implications of an oppressed history, how we are bound not just to immediate family but to all who have come before and will come after us, and, most of all, to the notion that everything was always, and is always, connected.
Alexandra Fuller was born in 1969 in the United Kingdom. She and her family moved to a farm in southern Africa in 1972. She spent her early twenties in Africa. She relocated to Wyoming in 1994. Travel Light, Move Quickly, Cocktail Hour Beneath the Tree of Forgetfulness, and Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight are among Fuller's memoirs.
