Reviews
"Treuer provides a sweeping account of how the trope of the vanishing Indian has distorted our current understanding of Native peoples. Instead of seeing Wounded Knee as the final chapter, he recovers the importance of World War II, urban migration, casinos, and the computer age in reshaping the modern Native American experience. The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee is written with conviction and illuminates the past in a deeply compelling way." - Nancy Isenberg, author of White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America "An ambitious, gripping, and elegantly written synthesis that is much more than the sum of its excellent parts--which include a rich array of Native lives, Treuer's own family and tribe among them-- The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee brings a recognition of indigenous vitality and futurity to a century of modern Indian history." -- Philip J. Deloria, Professor of History, Harvard University "In clear and vivid prose, David Treuer positions unforgettable portraits of contemporary Indian people within a compelling narrative of the experiences of indigenous peoples in the big sweep of time. His book offers a powerful challenge to the persistent and pernicious idea of the 'vanishing Indian,' replacing it with a far more accurate story of Indian people's repossession and restoration of sovereignty and dignity." -- Patricia Limerick, author of The Legacy of Conquest and co-founder, Center of the American West Praise for Prudence : "What does it say about our troubled times -- and David Treuer's considerable talents -- that his World War II-era novel speaks to the present moment in American history with more eloquence and complexity than the nightly newscast'...Tender and devastating ...[A] master class on suspense, shifting perspective and conflicting desire." -- Anthony Marra, The Washington Post "Masterful... one of the most honest, moving novels about America in quite a while." -- Los Angeles Times "Treuer doesn't just unravel the plot we might expect; he prompts us to interrogate the assumptions -- racial, sexual and otherwise -- that build up those expectations in the first place." -- NPR, "Treuer ... is a wonderful novelist, and if anybody can tell this story in the way it needs to be told and retold, until the end of time, he can." - LitHub "Treuer provides a sweeping account of how the trope of the vanishing Indian has distorted our current understanding of Native peoples.

Rarely has a single volume in Native American history attempted such comprehensiveness . . . Ultimately, Treuer''s powerful book suggests the need for soul-searching about the meanings of American history and the stories we tell ourselves about this nation''s past." -- New York Times Book Review "In a marvel of research and storytelling, an Ojibwe writer traces the dawning of a new resistance movement born of deep pride and a reverence for tradition. Treuer''s chronicle of rebellion and resilience is a manifesto and rallying cry." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "Chapter after chapter, it''s like one shattered myth after another." -- NPR "Treuer is an easy companion: thoughtful, provocative and challenging. He tells a disturbing yet heroic story that may very well be seen as a definition of ''American exceptionalism.''" --Washington Post "Sweeping, essential history...Treuer''s storytelling skills shine...[an] elegant handling of [a] complex narrative." -- The Economist "Treuer ... presents a more nuanced and hopeful vision of the past and future of Native Americans." -- Vanity Fair "Highly readable...a welcome compendium of Indian voices and insights that will be fresh for many readers...[An] urgent story." -- Newsday "Vivid...Treuer evokes, with simmering rage, the annihilation of Indian lives and worlds, but he also unearths a secret history of Indians flourishing in art, government, literature, science and technology...Beautifully written." -- The Minneapolis Star Tribune "Treuer provides a sweeping account of how the trope of the vanishing Indian has distorted our current understanding of Native peoples.

Synopsis
A sweeping history - and counter-narrative - of Native American life from the Wounded Knee massacre to the present., FINALIST FOR THE 2019 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD LONGLISTED FOR THE 2020 ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL FOR EXCELLENCE A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Chapter after chapter, it's like one shattered myth after another." - NPR "An informed, moving and kaleidoscopic portrait... Treuer's powerful book suggests the need for soul-searching about the meanings of American history and the stories we tell ourselves about this nation's past.." - New York Times Book Review , front page A sweeping history--and counter-narrative--of Native American life from the Wounded Knee massacre to the present. The received idea of Native American history--as promulgated by books like Dee Brown's mega-bestselling 1970 Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee --has been that American Indian history essentially ended with the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee. Not only did one hundred fifty Sioux die at the hands of the U. S. Cavalry, the sense was, but Native civilization did as well. Growing up Ojibwe on a reservation in Minnesota, training as an anthropologist, and researching Native life past and present for his nonfiction and novels, David Treuer has uncovered a different narrative. Because they did not disappear--and not despite but rather because of their intense struggles to preserve their language, their traditions, their families, and their very existence--the story of American Indians since the end of the nineteenth century to the present is one of unprecedented resourcefulness and reinvention. In The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee , Treuer melds history with reportage and memoir. Tracing the tribes' distinctive cultures from first contact, he explores how the depredations of each era spawned new modes of survival. The devastating seizures of land gave rise to increasingly sophisticated legal and political maneuvering that put the lie to the myth that Indians don't know or care about property. The forced assimilation of their children at government-run boarding schools incubated a unifying Native identity. Conscription in the US military and the pull of urban life brought Indians into the mainstream and modern times, even as it steered the emerging shape of self-rule and spawned a new generation of resistance. The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee is the essential, intimate story of a resilient people in a transformative era., Beginning with the tribes' devastating loss of land and the forced assimilation of their children at government-run boarding schools, he shows how the period of greatest adversity also helped to incubate a unifying Native identity. He traces how conscription in the US military and the pull of urban life brought Indians into the mainstream and modern times, even as it steered the emerging shape of their self-rule and spawned a new generation of resistance. The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee is an essential, intimate history - and counter-narrative - of a resilient people in a transformative era., FINALIST FOR THE 2019 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD LONGLISTED FOR THE 2020 ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL FOR EXCELLENCE A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Named a best book of 2019 by The New York Times, TIME , The Washington Post , NPR , Hudson Booksellers , The New York Public Library , The Dallas Morning News, and Library Journal .
