The story of the wars of belief between the French Jesuits and the Iroquois in sixteenth to eighteenthcentury Canada from the author of Europe Central, winner of the National Book AwardWith the same panoramic vision and mythic sensibility he brought to The IceShirt, William T. Vollmann continues his hugely original fictional history of the clash of Indians and Europeans in the New World. It is 400 years ago, and the Black Gowns, French Jesuit priests, are beginning their descent into the forests of Canada, eagerly seeking to convert the Huronand courting martyrdom at the hands of the rival Iroquois. Through the eyes of these vastly different peoplesparticularly through those of the grimly pious Father Jean de Brebeuf and the Indian prophetess Born UnderwaterVollmann reconstructs America's past as tragedy, nightmare, and bloody spectacle. In the process, he does nothing less than reinvent the American novel as well.
