In the telling of the story of young Cherokee boy raised and educated in the backwoods by his grandparents, Forrest Carter talkes about living and dying, the place of people in the universe, the role of family and friends in the shaping of life, tragedy, humor, sorrow, bigotry, unselfishness and deep awareness of nature. Some of it is sad, some of it is hilarious, some of it is unbelievable and it is, all and all, charming.

One of the great classics of our time, the moving story of peasant Wang Lung and his wives, the family they founded that would one day become a powerful dynasty and of the earth that sustained him and that he made to prosper against the ravages of nature and the violence and upheaval of 19th century China.

Using the lore and dreams of the men and women who helped settle a continent and the beliefs of the tribes who were here before them, Orson Scott Card has created an alternate frontier America where folk magic works and has colored the entire history of the colonies. Into this world a child with a powerful destiny is born.
