## Description

Citizens Creek: A Novel [Tademy, Lalita] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Citizens Creek: A Novel

Review: mesmerizing and engrossing - Citizens Creek is yet another example of Lalita Tademy's extraordinary ability to expose and reveal a part of history most people know nothing about. Her writing is mesmerizing and engrossing. Often I feel as though I am reading a personal journal instead of a novel. She goes beyond that to give such texture and life to her character's thoughts, conversations and everyday movements. I've learned so much fascinating and devastating history through her books. I find myself getting intimately entwined and deeply attached to her characters and their plights. This book is full of outrage and joy, strength and determination in barbaric circumstances and always, always truth. As with her other novels -- especially Cane River, I did not want this book to end.
Review: Another good Tademy read - I've read Lalita Tademy's first two novels (Cane River and Red River) and was waiting for another to follow. I have to admit that I almost put it down after the first 100 pages. It's slow going at first, but I am so glad I continued on. It sparked my full interest when she introduced Rose and it just got better. I enjoy her writing style and the historical facts that she incorporates into her books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Important and Accessible!

Ms Tademy has done it again. As with Cane River, she has illuminated an aspect of Black American history too few of us know about. Never before had I been aware of Native Americans as slave owners. And never had I heard of Black members of tribes. Citizens Creek is a great multi-generational story of the hardships and accomplishments of chief Cow Tom and his granddaughter Rose, both true historical figures. The results of rigorous research and literary skill are a seamless weaving of fact and fiction into a compelling story with broad appeal. It is romance, history, adventure, politics, and a geography lesson. Lalita Tademy is a great contributor to American literature. As a side note, awareness of this aspect of U.S. History raises havoc with the terms we use to categorize those of us living in this country. Does Black American or American of African descent include those who are also Creek or Seminole? And the term Native American is even more troubling, does it exclude Black tribal members?
