[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just finished The Best Land Under Heaven, by Michael Wallis, today. It tells the story of the Donner Party, with an eye toward historical accuracy more than sensationalism, though of course the facts of the story are sensational enough without embroidery. It was harrowing and made me want to raid my fridge. Next up, The Indifferent Stars Above, by Daniel James Brown, another take about the same subject matter and apparently even more intense. [/quote] The Indifferent Stars Above is great narrative nonfiction. I'm reading Lost Children Archive by Valerie Luiselli. This came out in 2019 and is about a family driving across country from NYC to the southwest so the husband can continue his research about the Apaches and the wife can continue research on migrant children held in detention centers. The writing is really beautiful and I'm enjoying it.[/quote]
