A review by greenrain
Caleb's Crossing by Geraldine Brooks

4.0

This novel appealed to me for several reasons, the biggest two being the female narrator and the history of Native Americans prior to European contact and the aftermath of that contact. The story didn't go where I was afraid it might, staying historically accurate. The old language was done well, from what I can tell. Overall, something I'd recommend to others.

I'm beginning to like this author. I have a difficult time finding fiction about women that focuses on more than just romantic relationships (nothing wrong with that, but I like writing that really makes me think about other issues).
