Longlisted for the 2019 National Book AwardLonglisted for the 2020 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence New York Times Best Seller´´Chapter after chapter, it´s like one shattered myth after another.´´ (NPR)´´An informed, moving and kaleidoscopic portrait...Treuer´s powerful book suggests the need for soul-searching about the meanings of American history and the stories we tell ourselves about this nation´s past.´´ (New York Times Book Review, front page) A sweeping history - and counter-narrative - of Native American life from the Wounded Knee massacre to the present. The received idea of Native American history - as promulgated by books like Dee Brown´s mega-best-selling 1970 Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee - has been that American Indian history essentially ended with the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee. Not only did 150 Sioux die at the hands of the US Cavalry, the sense was, but Native civilization did as well. Growing up Ojibwe on a reservation in Minnesota, training as an anthropologist, and researching Native life past and present for his nonfiction and novels, David Treuer has uncovered a different narrative. Because they did not disappear - and not despite but rather because of their intense struggles to preserve their language, their traditions, their families, and their very existence - the story of American Indians since the end of the 19th century to the present is one of unprecedented resourcefulness and reinvention. In The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee, Treuer melds history with reportage and memoir.
