Caleb's Crossing: A Novel
In this novel, author Geraldine Brooks weaves a compelling narrative that intertwines the life of Caleb, a Wampanoag Native American, with the colonial world of New England. The story follows Caleb's journey from his home in the Wampanoag tribe to the hallowed halls of Harvard College, where he faces the complexities of both worlds. Brooks' richly detailed prose and historical research bring to life the era's social dynamics, religious tensions, and the profound impact of cultural exchange on both individuals and communities. more
