Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. SHORTLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD The winner of Swedens most prestigious literary award makes her American debut with an epic, multigenerational novel-in-verse about two Sami families and their quest to stay together across a century of migration, violence, and colonial trauma. Crystalline prose that reads like poetry and myth at once. There are intricate layers of beauty and meaning here in sparse clusters across a vast new landscape as Ive never read before. The music of this book is old, and it is new, and it is old.Tommy Orange, bestselling author of There, There and Wandering StarsIn Northern Sami, the word AEdnan means the land, the earth, and my mother. These are all crucial forces within the lives of the Indigenous families that animate this groundbreaking book: an astonishing verse novel that chronicles a hundred years of change: a book that will one day stand alongside Halldor Laxnesss Independent People and Sigrid Undsets Kristin Lavransdatter as an essential Scandinavian epic.The tale begins in the 1910s, as Ristin and her family migrate their herd of reindeer to summer grounds. Along the way, forced to separate due to the newly formed border between Sweden and Norway, Ristin loses one of her sons in the aftermath of an accident, a grief that will ripple across the rest of the book. In the wake of this tragedy, Ristin struggles to manage whats left of her family and her community.In the 1970s, Lise, as part of a new generation of Sami grappling with questions of identity and inheritance, reflects on her traumatic childhood, when she was forced to leave her parents and was placed in a Nomad School to be stripped of the language of her ancestors. Finally, in the 2010s we meet Lises daughter, Sandra, an embodiment of Indigenous resilience, an activist fighting for reparations in a highly publicized land rights trial, in a time when the Sami language is all but lost.Weaving together the voices of half a dozen characters, from elders to young people unsure of their heritage, Axelsson has created a moving family saga around the consequences of colonial settlement. AEdnan is a powerful reminder of how durable language can be, even when it is borrowed, especially when it has to hold what no longer remains. I was the weight / in the stone you brought / back from the coast // to place on / my grave, one character says to another from beyond the grave. And I flew above / the boat calling / to you all: // There will be rain / there will be rain. "This is a Borzoi book"--Title page verso.
