SUMMARY:House of Caravans with Shilpi Suneja
DESCRIPTION:Kick off the month of November with a reading and Q&A with Shilpi Suneja from her debut novel\, House of Caravans. Suneja will be in conversation with Natasha Raheja\, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Cornell University. \nThis book is a marvelous debut novel exploring the fractures caused by the Partition of India\, as well as the legacy and contemporary parallels of sectarian violence around the world. \nLahore\, British India. 1943. As World War rages\, resentment of colonial rule grows\, and with it acts of rebellion. Animated by idealistic dreams of an independent India\, Chhote Nanu agrees to plant a bomb intended for the British superintendent of police. Some four years later\, following a torturous imprisonment\, Chhote flees the city as it descends into violence. Carrying the young son of his murdered wife through scenes of unspeakable bloodshed\, he encounters his brother\, Barre Nanu\, the two of them caught between a vanishing past in the new nation of Pakistan and a profoundly uncertain future in India. \nKanpur\, India. 2002. Following the death of his grandfather\, Barre Nanu\, Karan Khatri returns from New York to join his sister in their childhood home\, which has been transformed by the embittered Chhote Nanu into a hostel for Hindu pilgrims. When their mother arrives from Delhi\, Karan and Ila learn that their fathers were two different men—one Hindu\, one Muslim—relationships with both of whom were doomed by familial bias and prejudice\, the siblings resolve to reconnect\, and to understand the painful twist and turns in the family’s story. \nMoving back and forth from the tumultuous years surrounding Partition to the era of renewed global sectarianism following 9/11\, this extraordinary historical novel\, “Tolstoyan in its scope” (Ha Jin)\, portrays a family and nations divided by the living legacy of colonialism. Richly evocative and timely\, House of Caravans will endure in the ways only the best literature does.

SUMMARY:Catharine\, Queen of the Tumbling Waters - Reading and Q&A with Cynthia G. Neale
DESCRIPTION:Cynthia G. Neale\, author of historical novels\, cookbooks\, essays\, and screenplays\, will be at Buffalo Street Books to read from her latest novel\, Catherine\, Queen of the Tumbling Waters. Join us for an evening of historical literature and tasty treats! \n“I’m not like your white women who lose their tongues and wits in a house full of men.” \nSo says Catharine Montour to her white captive during the Indian depredations of the 1750s. Catharine Montour\, a métis\, born during Pennsylvania’s Long Peace\, is nurtured by her grandmother\, the celebrated Madame Montour\, an interpreter for the British colonies. Her uncle\, Andrew Montour\, is also an interpreter and sits on the Council of the Iroquois. The Montours are an unconventional\, yet highly regarded family who host diverse and fascinating assemblies of fur traders\, missionaries\, Indians\, and colonial leaders in their home. \nAs the Long Peace ends and the French and Indian War\, and eventually the American Revolution occur\, Catharine\, desiring only to live quietly by a waterfall in New York\, becomes a fearless\, determined\, and passionate leader who demands loyalty to peace in her village and for all. And then in 1779 when General John Sullivan leads the campaign to destroy all Iroquois villages\, Queen Catharine\, heroically guides her people to Fort Niagara. \nToday as American exceptionalism prevails against the recognition of indigenous peoples\, Catharine’s relevant and fact-based story spans two wars and enlightens and makes visible the unwritten truths of early American history.
