It is 1865: the American Civil War is ending. Eliza Duane Mulvey sets out from Lafayette, Louisiana, the town her mother Mary Duane called home. Alone, she walks across a devastated country in search of a youngster she has not seen in four years. One of the hundred thousand children drawn into the war, his fate has been mysterious and will prove extraordinary.

It’s a walk that will have consequences for many seemingly unconnected survivors: a love-struck cartographer, a beautiful Latina poetess, rebel guerrilla Johnny Thunders, runaway slave Grace McNeile, and the mercurial revolutionary Giacomo O’Keefe, who commanded a brigade of Irish immigrants in the Union Army and is now governor of a Western wilderness where nothing is as it seems.

I adore James O’Connor’s most recent books, so I thought I would read an earlier book. What a slog and I still do not understand the beginning, the long, drawn out intro to Eliza, a main character. It’s like being tossed into the deep end of a pool and told to figure out how to swim. That said, the man can WRITE, which is why I kept going. I just wish the book were shorter by 1/3.

Gorgeous writing, but…

The writing is superb, and the narrator is a magician with the different voices. Definitely worth a listen and re-listen.

Excellent writing and narration

I didn't get through the first CD disc & threw out the next 9 discs of this title without burning the rest . From now on I will listen to the book before I burn it to disc.
