Descriere magazin:
An exhilarating debut novel about the first native of the
Indian subcontinent to arrive in Colonial America, inspired by a historical figure--marvelous...readers of Esi Edugyan and Yaa Gyasi will be enthralled (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Meet Tony: insatiably curious, deeply compassionate, with a unique perspective on every scene he encounters. Kidnapped and transported to the New World after traveling from the British
East India Company\'s outpost on the Coromandel Coast to the teeming streets of London, young Tony finds himself in Jamestown, Virginia, where he and his fellow indentured servants--boys like himself, men from Africa, a mad woman from London--must work the tobacco plantations. Orphaned and afraid, Tony initially longs for home. But as he adjusts to his new environment, finding companionship and even love, he can envision a life for himself after servitude. His dream: to become a medicine man, or a physician\'s assistant, an expert on roots and herbs, a dispenser of healing compounds. Like the play that captivates him--Shakespeare\'s A Midsummer Night\'s Dream--Tony\'s life is rich with oddities and hijinks, humor and tragedy. Set during the early days of English colonization in Jamestown, before servitude calcified into racialized slavery, The
East Indian gives authentic voice to an otherwise unknown historic figure and brings the world he would have encountered to vivid life. In this coming-of-age tale, narrated by a most memorable literary rascal,
Charry conjures a young character sure to be beloved by readers for years to come. An exhilarating debut novel about the first native of the
