The Forest: A Fable of America in the 1830s by Alexander Nemerov
Requirements: .PDF reader, 10 MB
Overview: A vivid historical imagining of life in the early United States
“This is a wonderful book. . . . An extraordinary achievement.”―Edmund de Waal, New York Times bestselling author of The Hare with Amber Eyes
Set amid the glimmering lakes and disappearing forests of the early United States, The Forest imagines how a wide variety of Americans experienced their lives. Part truth, part fiction, and featuring both real and invented characters, the book follows painters, poets, enslaved people, farmers, and artisans living and working in a world still made largely of wood. Some of the historical characters―such as Thomas Cole, Margaret Fuller, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Fanny Kemble, Edgar Allan Poe, and Nat Turner―are well-known, while others are not. But all are creators of private and grand designs.
