Discover the story of a Native American community told through the generations, from the author of the New York Times bestseller There There

Following its unforgettable characters through almost two centuries of history, from the horrors of the Sand Creek Massacre of 1865 to the aftermath of a mass shooting in the early 21st century, Wandering Stars is an indelible novel of America's war on its own people.

It is also the tender, shattering story of many generations of a Native American family, struggling to find ways through displacement, addiction and pain, towards home and hope.

Readers of Orange's classic debut There There will know some of these characters and will be eager to learn what happened to Orvil Red Feather after the Oakland Powwow. New readers will discover a wondrous novel of poetry, music, rage and love, from one of the most astonishing voices of his generation.

Commentaires

A revelation
An emotionally incandescent and structurally riveting second novel… Orange’s work feels, to me, as vital as air
[Wandering Stars] weaves a tapestry of trauma down the decades… Ultimately, the turns their stories take…are about healing, not catastrophe…marrying eye-opening historical re-creation with gritty social realism
A sweeping, centuries-spanning, intergenerational novel concerned with history, legacy and family… Tommy Orange confronts difficult subjects in mellifluous prose… He shows that storytelling is an intoxicant in itself, as powerful in its way as any substance
Among the tragedy that is foreshadowed throughout, there is also redemption and humanity. It's a stunning book (Dua Lipa, Service95 Bookclub Pick March 2025)
A centuries-spanning epic of a Native family that manages to feel profoundly intimate
Outstanding . . . A dazzling work of literary fiction ... A novel about family, loss, history and addiction
A multilayered, blisteringly honest novel ... [Wandering Stars] undeniably soars
Wandering Stars probes the aftermath of atrocity, seeing history and its horrors as heritable . . . The reader can see what the characters cannot
Varied and textured but also ruthlessly clear (Kiese Laymon, author of Heavy)
