The heart-rending story of a Native American community told through the generations
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLER
'A towering achievement’ New York Times
'As vital as air' Guardian
'This novel is alive' Tess Gunty
Following the arc of two centuries, from the horrors of the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864 to the early 21st century, Wandering Stars is an indelible novel of America's war on its own people.
It is also the tender, shattering story of several generations of a Native American family, searching for ways through displacement and pain, towards home and hope: a wondrous novel of poetry, music, rage and love, from one of the most astonishing voices of his generation.
'Wandering Stars is the kind of book that saves lives' Kaveh Akbar, author of Martyr!
'No one knows how to express tenderness and yearning like Tommy Orange' Louise Erdrich, author of The Night Watchman
'One of our most important writers... Wondrous' Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, author of Chain-Gang All-Stars
'The care coursing through these pages—care for people, care for art, care for truth—is nothing short of radical' Tess Gunty, author of The Rabbit Hutch
