SUMMARY:Books on the Boundary: The Berry Pickers
DESCRIPTION:Books on the Boundary: A Museum of the Cherokee People Reading Circle is a quarterly book club for members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and guests. This summer\, the club has selected The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters (Mi’kmaq and settler ancestry). The 2023 novel is a national bestseller\, 2023 Barnes & Noble Discover Prize Winner\, and Winner of the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction. \n“A stunning debut about love\, race\, brutality\, and the balm of forgiveness.” —People\, A Best New Book \nAbout The Berry Pickers\nJuly 1962. A Mi’kmaq family from Nova Scotia arrives in Maine to pick blueberries for the summer. Weeks later\, four-year-old Ruthie\, the family’s youngest child\, vanishes. She is last seen by her six-year-old brother\, Joe\, sitting on a favorite rock at the edge of a berry field. Joe will remain distraught by his sister’s disappearance for years to come. \nIn Maine\, a young girl named Norma grows up as the only child of an affluent family. Her father is emotionally distant\, her mother frustratingly overprotective. Norma is often troubled by recurring dreams and visions that seem more like memories than imagination. As she grows older\, Norma slowly comes to realize there is something her parents aren’t telling her. Unwilling to abandon her intuition\, she will spend decades trying to uncover this family secret. \nFor readers of The Vanishing Half and Woman of Light\, this showstopping debut by a vibrant new voice in fiction is a riveting novel about the search for truth\, the shadow of trauma\, and the persistence of love across time. \n“A harrowing tale of Indigenous family separation . . . [Peters] excels in writing characters for whom we can’t help rooting . . . With The Berry Pickers\, Peters takes on the monumental task of giving witness to people who suffered through racist attempts of erasure like her Mi’kmaw ancestors.” —The New York Times Book Review \nAbout the Author\nAmanda Peters is a writer of Mi’kmaq and settler ancestry. Her debut novel\, The Berry Pickers was the winner of the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction and the 2023 Barnes & Noble Discover Prize\, and was shortlisted for the Atwood Gibson Fiction Award from the Writers Trust of Canada. Her work has also appeared in the Antigonish Review\, Grain Magazine\, the Alaska Quarterly Review\, the Dalhousie Review and Filling Station Magazine. She is the winner of the 2021 Indigenous Voices Award for Unpublished Prose and a participant in the 2021 Writers’ Trust Rising Stars program. Amanda is a graduate of the Master of Fine Arts Program at the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) in Santa Fe\, New Mexico\, and has a Certificate in Creative Writing from the University of Toronto. \nAbout Books on the Boundary\nNew in 2024\, Books on the Boundary: A Museum of the Cherokee People Reading Circle is a quarterly book club that discusses the best fiction\, nonfiction\, and poetry written by Indigenous authors.
