Synopsis "ledfeather"

After burning up the blacktop in New Mexico with The Fast Red Road and rewriting Indian history on the Great Plains with The Bird is Gone, Stephen Graham Jones now takes us to Montana. Set on a Blackfeet Indian reservation, the life of one Indian boy, Doby Saxon, is laid bare through the eyes of those who witness it: his near-death experience, his suicide attempts, his brief glimpse of victory, and the unnecessary death of one of his best friends. But through Doby there emerges a connection to the past, to an Indian Agent who served the United States Government over a century before. This revelation leads to another and another until it becomes clear that the decisions of this single Indian Agent have impacted the lives of generations of Blackfeet Indians. And the life of Doby Saxon, a boy standing in the middle of the road at night, his hands balled into fists, the reservation wheeling all around him like the whole of Blackfeet history hurtling towards him. Jones's beautifully complex novel is a story of life, death, love, and the ties that bind us not only to what has been, but what will be: the power of one moment, the weight of one decision, the inevitability of one outcome, and the price of one life.

View Author's Page
Stephen Graham Jones, nacido el 22 de enero de 1972 en Midland, Texas, es un autor Blackfeet Native American que ha dejado una huella prominente en la ficción contemporánea, especialmente en los géneros de terror, experimental y ciencia ficción. Su trayectoria literaria comenzó con su novela debut, The Fast Red Road, en el año 2000, publicada como parte de su tesis doctoral. Desde entonces, ha demostrado una productividad notable, alcanzando más de treinta novelas, además de colecciones de relatos, cómics y novelas cortas.

Su obra destaca por un estilo inquietante que combina elementos tradicionales del horror —como slashers y mitologías indígenas— con reflexiones profundas sobre identidad, cultura y transformación. Títulos como The Only Good Indians, My Heart Is a Chainsaw (primero de la trilogía The Indian Lake) y Don’t Fear the Reaper lo consolidaron como una voz poderosa en el género. También explora temáticas como la venganza, la justicia y la herencia cultural desde una perspectiva indígena.

Además de escritor, Jones es profesor universitario: ocupa la cátedra Ineva Reilly Baldwin Endowed Chair of English en la Universidad de Colorado Boulder, donde fusiona su pasión por la literatura con la docencia.

Reside en Boulder, Colorado, junto con su esposa y sus hijos, y mantiene una conexión activa con su comunidad y tradiciones como miembro de la Nación Blackfeet.
