Krátky popis
It is 1953. Thomas Wazhushk is the night watchman at the first
factory to open near the Turtle Mountain Reservation in rural North
Dakota. He is also a prominent Chippewa Council member, trying to
understand a new bill that is soon to be put before Congress. The
US Government calls it an 'emancipation' bill, but it isn't about
freedom - it threatens the rights of Native Americans to their
land, their very identity. How can he fight this betrayal? Unlike
most of the girls on the reservation, Pixie - 'Patrice' - Paranteau
has no desire to wear herself down on a husband and kids. She works
at the factory, earning barely enough to support her mother and
brother, let alone her alcoholic father who sometimes returns home
to bully her for money. But Patrice needs every penny to get if
she's ever going to get to Minnesota to find her missing sister
Vera. In The Night Watchman multi-award winning author Louise
Erdrich weaves together a story of past and future generations, of
preservation and progress. She grapples with the worst and best
impulses of human nature, illuminating the loves and lives, desires
and ambitions of her characters with compassion, wit and
intelligence.
