This saga of a writer done dirty resurrects the silenced voice of Sanora Babb, peerless author of midcentury American literature.
Riding Like the Wind reminds us with fresh awareness that the stories we know--and who tells them--can change the way we remember history..
Her Life and work feature heavily in Ken Burns\'s award-winning documentary The Dust Bowl and inspired Kristin Hannah in her bestseller The Four Winds .
But this is not merely a saga of literary usurping; on her own merits, Babb\'s impact was profound.
It was Babb\'s field notes and oral histories of migrant farmworkers that Steinbeck relied on to write his novel.
There, she befriended the era\'s literati, including Ray Bradbury and Ralph Ellison; entered into an illegal marriage; and was blacklisted by the House Un-American Activities Committee.
Dunkle follows Babb from her impoverished childhood in eastern Colorado to California.
In Riding Like the Wind , renowned biographer Iris Jamahl Dunkle revives the groundbreaking voice of Sanora Babb.
But it also stopped the publication of another important novel, silencing a gifted writer who was more intimately connected to the true experiences of Dust Bowl migrants.
In 1939, when John Steinbeck\'s The Grapes of Wrath was published , it became an instant bestseller and a prevailing narrative in the nation\'s collective imagination of the era.
