This novel is so stunningly beautiful that I can't believe it's the author's first. The writing is absolutely exquisite.I felt the beautiful writing was jarred and interrupted by sex though. It often took me out of the moment the writing had lulled me into. I wish this book hadn't centered around sex, because I wanted so much to love this story. I loved the themes of love and family and culture and history and heartache, but sex was such a dominant part of the story that it overshadowed all of those more tender and subtle themes for me. I was disappointed about that.
I give VERY few Five-Stars to books. If ANY book deserved it, this one does! From the opening words of this novel, I had the inkling that this was to be a book of unusual quality. The cadence, tone, pacing, characters all created a picture of life on a Native American farming allotment in Oklahoma of such vibrence and precision that it was almost a physical experience. This book is beautiful in the way a thunderstorm holds beauty in its fierceness or in the way a heavy rain can transform a newly-tilled field into an art work of erosion – amazing to behold, difficult to witness. It is the kind of book that will make the next book read to be dull and colorless, regardless of how good that book may be. Maud Nail, direct descendent of those who walked The Trail of Tears from Georgia to Oklahoma, lives with her brother, Lovely, and her father, Mustard (so named because of his temper) on her deceased mother’s allotment. Her extended family live on the surrounding land – all making a living out of the dusty, rich soil given to them in exchange for homes taken from them. Her steady, routine life is forever changed when someone takes an axe to one of the family’s cows. That act of senseless violence sets off a chain of events so dynamic in their impact that Maud is left feeling like an unwelcomed stranger on her own land. Those feelings of detachment are only intensified when a handsome peddler (Booker) drives up with his wagon-full of wares covered in striking blue canvas. Maud loves her farm and her family. She attends to her daily chores without delay or rancor, helps with the farming that will bring what little cash can be had in that part of the world and visits her relatives when time and work allow for such enjoyments. The death of Betty (the cow) is a point of focus of just how small her life really is.The response to this attack on the family and its’ livelihood is expectedly harsh and coincides with the feelings of love she is beginning to have for one outside of her clan. Both occasions are moments of change for Maud. Protecting her family, she knows, requires sacrifice unasked for but nonetheless expected. The growing love she has for Booker awakens her to the demands such feelings make – honesty, transparency, trust of one not blood-kin. In response to each of these moments, Maud takes action; she makes one situation far worse for those she hoped to protect, she acts in the other in a manner that is new for her but one that will lead her further from the certainty she once held in ease.The reader is follows Maud as she goes about living her life in a time of change for her. The riches Oklahoma is experiencing has a feeling of permanence – the oilfields are making everyone connected with them wealthy, farmers are having bumper crops of corn and wheat with a ready market, the Creek and Cherokee nations, exiled to a foreign land, are accomplishing to live on their own. The love Maud learned in her home and within her community is expanding in ways that are new but seem natural and she learns that it is very good. She is wanted by two desirable men who are near opposites, one offers the “future,†the other offers the stability of what she already knows. Maud is the representation of the Nation during that age. Hopeful for more, holding to the past.This is a novel written for adults. There is graphic violence and explicit sexual moments that are intentionally shocking as the author used those instances to magnify the conflict within Maud as she “walked her line.†The “Line†is used with multiple meanings: the line between her allotments and those of her neighbors, the line between staying and leaving, the line of definition of who she is apart from others expectations of her and finally the line from which, once crossed, there can be no return. As the book closes Maud ponders, “1927 and 1928 had been terrible years. She felt that no matter what happened, 1929 would be a better one.†(p.282) The last we see of Maud is her crossing into that hopeful year.
Do I feel this was a worthy read? Yes. Did I read it to the end? Yes. The author did a very good job of meshing writing style with the setting and characters. They thought things through slowly, waited patiently for answers to questions. Were people of a few words in environments rather stark and certainly difficult. The author chose to use a short simply put style which suited the novel.Spoiler alert!So the question is, why only 3 stars? I really disliked the animal cruelty at the beginning of the story and really wanted to stop reading as soon as it was described. Horrible, but maybe the author felt it necessary to the story. Still hated it. Second, while empathizing to a point with the main character, I found it difficult to like her. She seemed so self absorbed with her own feelings that she seemed to have little if any sympathy or regard for anyone else, whether Billy, the baby or sometimes her relatives. I thought her final "gift" to Billy hardly a fair exchange for her leaving without a word and the ending unsatisfying. In real life I doubt her marriage would make a year. Sorry, but this book brought out a rather strong opinion. I do however, appreciate having a glimpse into the lives of Native Americans in Oklahoma during the time period set in the story. I would imagine most people would want to escape those conditions as Maud did.
I got this book because of a review in the Smithsonian. Not what I expected but a very good presentation of issues of the time. I could see myself in some of this, and others I know, and we are 70 years later. The story caused a lot of reflection, and gave me a better understanding of how it was for my parents and the people of their time.
I don't think I have ever read about a character that I liked quite as much as Maud. She is from a totally different culture with a different view of life from my own and yet totally believable. Her connection with extended family was so deeply different from my own experience and still felt absolutely authentic. She is so practical and capable and yet yearns for a different life, a better life. Her curiosity, imagination and yearning are tangible. Maud's passion and sexuality took me by surprise. I'd love to walk down the line and sit on the porch with her but I'm afraid she'd only tell me lies. I do so hope there will be a sequel. How will she cope with the events 1929 will bring? It will be in her own unique way I'm sure.
Well worth my time. Good character development and engaging story telling. My only complaint was the last few chapters had way too much graphic sex--it almost felt as though someone else wrote that section of the book. My only thought on this was perhaps Maud's depression caused her sexual addiction? Anyway, I still thimk the story was very interesting. The last couple chapters made the book inappropriate for young teens which is too bad as the indian story was really informative. I would suggest A Cup of Dust by Susie Finkbeiner for the young teen. Its about the dust bowl. I did enjoy Maud's Line very much though and will read more of her work.
