Description
A mesmerizing, poignant saga of love and loss firmly grounded in the Midwestern landscape by National Book Award finalist Laird Hunt.
On a dark and lovely winter night, Noah Summers sits before a roaring fire, drifting between sleep and recollection, trying to make sense of a lifetime of psychic visions and his family's tumultuous history on an Indiana farmstead. Decades have passed since Noah first fell in love with Opal, a brilliant but unstable young woman whose penchant for flames separated the couple after just forty-two idyllic days of married life. Despite the challenges they each faced, their love never wavered in the long years that followed, sustained by letters, memories, and the bonds of family.
Indiana, Indiana is a beautiful and surreal story that illuminates the heart of rural America.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Indiana, Indiana is praised for its distinctive narrative style, described as a "polyphonic delirium" that captures the protagonist's emotional turmoil. Reviewers commend Laird Hunt for his lyricism, odd humour, and the novel's intimate portrayal of people and place, evoking both tenderness and a gothic sensibility akin to early works by authors like Michael Ondaatje. The novel is appreciated for its otherworldly tone, with critics highlighting Hunt's ability to create vivid, unusual narratives that explore the complexities of love and landscape.
