A mother is brutally raped by a man on their North Dakota reservation where she lives with her husband and thirteen-year-old son, Joe. Traumatized and afraid, she takes to her bed and refuses to talk to anyone - including the police. While her husband, a tribal judge, endeavours to wrest justice from a situation that defies his keenest efforts, young Joe's world shifts on its child's axis. Confused, and nursing a complicated fury, Joe sets out to find answers that might put his mother's attacker behind bars - and make everything right again. Or so he hopes. The Round House is a poignant and abundantly humane story of a young boy pitched prematurely into an unjust adult world. It is a story of vivid survival; and tt confirms Louise Erdrich as one of America's most distinctive contemporary novelists.

For more than three decades, Louise Erdrich has won prizes, critical acclaim, and the hearts of readers the world over with her spellbinding novels of Native American life.In Books and Islands in Ojibwe Country she travels, with her 18-month-old daughter, to the terrain her ancestors inhabited for centuries: the lakes and islands of southern Ontario. Summoning to life the Ojibwes sacred spirits and songs, their language and sorrows, Erdrich considers the many ways in which her tribe whose name refers to the word ozhibiiige, to write have influenced her. Her journey, through a landscape of breathtaking beauty, links ancient stone paintings with an island where a recluse built an extraordinary library, and she reveals how both have transformed her.Drawing on the long, elemental tradition of storytelling that is in her blood, Louise Erdrich skilfully weaves together history, mythology and memoir to enchanting, evocative effect. Never before published in the UK, Books and Islands in Ojibwe Country is a captivating meditation on modern life, nature, and ancient spirituality and creativity.

In this literary masterwork, Louise Erdrich, the bestselling author of the National Book Award-winning The Round House and the Pulitzer Prize nominee The Plague of Doves wields her breathtaking narrative magic in an emotionally haunting contemporary tale of a tragic accident, a demand for justice, and a profound act of atonement with ancient roots in Native American culture.North Dakota, late summer, 1999.

"Nel suo ultimo libro, Louise Erdrich si allontana da quel mondo di riserve indiane e difficili rapporti tra bianchi e pellerossa che ha spinto una parte della critica a paragonarla a William Faulkner per concentrarsi sulla storia di un matrimonio e di una famiglia. Irene America e suo marito sono alla fine del loro rapporto. Gil e un pittore affermato, Irene il soggetto dei suoi quadri, che la rappresentano ossessivamente -in tutte le sue incarnazioni-: virginea adolescente, donna matura e incinta, in pose modeste o sfacciatamente pornografiche, un''altalena di esaltazione e umiliazione della donna. Coronata dalla nascita di tre splendidi figli, l''unione di Irene e Gil dovrebbe rientrare nello schema del Sogno americano. Invece, dopo molti anni di matrimonio, la loro vita e diventata un incubo, percorsa com''e da tensioni e aperta violenza. La spiegazione sta in una frase di Irene: ""Tu vuoi possedermi. E io ho commesso un errore: ti amavo e ti ho lasciato credere che potevi farlo"". Cosi la donna, sapendo che il marito legge di nascosto il suo diario, decide di servirsene per manipolarlo. Dalle sue note Gil ricava l''impressione di stare perdendo la presa su di lei. Irene ha smesso di amarlo, e questo si riflette sulla qualita del suo lavoro. Irene si nasconde, e con lei si sottraggono alla sua vista i quadri che Gil vorrebbe ancora dipingere. Tutto crolla, dopo pagine avvincenti e dolorose, fino al tragico finale. Chi aveva ragione? Difficile parteggiare per uno dei due protagonisti... "

Dans une réserve obijwé du Dakota du Nord, à la fin des années 1980, Geraldine est agressée, battue, violée. Traumatisée, elle s’enferme dans le silence. Pour Joe, son fils, 13 ans, la vie ne sera p

Esta extraordinaria segunda novela de Louise Erdrich, La Reina de la Remolacha, empieza en una fría mañana de invierno a principios de los años treinta, mucho antes de que los campos se cubrieran de remolacha, cuando los hermanos Karl y Mary Adare, aun adolescentes, llegan a Argus, pequeña poblacion cercana a una reserva india de Dakota del Norte, cuyo unico contacto con el exterior es el ferrocarril. Al quedar huerfanos en extrañas circunstancias, Karl y Mary deciden buscar refugio en casa de una tia, casada con el carnicero del pueblo. Los protagonistas de esta inolvidable historia de obsesivas pasiones son aparentemente corrientes, pero irradian todos ellos como una inaprensible presencia magica : ademas de Karl y Mary, estan por ejemplo, la prima Sita, hermosa, alborotada, ambiciosa y celosa ; Wallace Pfef, presidente de la Camara de Comercio de Argus, portador de un inviolable secreto ; Celestine James, una mestiza chippewa, y su hija Dot, a quien los lectores de Filtro de amor conocieron ya en esta primera novela de la autora. A lo largo de cuarenta años, todos los personajes de esta saga familiar teñida en todo momento de un sutil humor negro se enfrentan, se repudian y vuelven a reunirse inevitablemente. La suya es una historia cimentada en la tenacidad de conflictivas relaciones de amor y amistad y en la magia del insalvable misterio de la condicion humana. Al igual que Filtro de amor, esta novela nace de una prosa de irresistible belleza que proviene sobre todo del talento, aqui confirmado, de la autora para envolver hechos y personajes perfectamente triviales en una indefinible atmosfera de poetica ensoñacion.
