![]() ![]() All very believable for a 1930s Indian boarding school. They leave because the boarding school is a horrible place to be, a callous institution of brutality, illegal activity, and the destruction of the culture of its Native American students. Only one of the boys is Native American, however, the other two are brothers, and the younger brother, Odie O’Banion, narrates the story. Three young men and a little girl, Emma, leave the Indian boarding school in Minnesota where they live. It’s 1932, the heart of the Great Depression. The plot of This Tender Land gets off to a good start. ![]() To see my other recent reviews in historical fiction, please see: William Kent Krueger’s novel This Tender Land is a new release in historical fiction, appearing in September of 2019. ![]()
