Evergreen / by Rasmussen, Rebecca.(CARDINAL)499823;
From the celebrated author of The Bird Sisters, a gorgeously rendered and emotionally charged novel that spans generations, telling the story of two siblings, raised apart, attemtping to share a life. It is 1938 when Eveline LeMay, a young bride, follows her husband, Emil, into the wilderness of Minnesota. Though their cabin is run-down, they have a river full of fish, a garden out back, and a new baby boy named Hux. When Emil leaves to take care of his sick father, he asks Eveline to bring their son back home to her parents in the town where she grew up. Instead, Eveline stays, learning to live off the land and befriending Lulu, her strange and charismatic neighbor across the river. Lulu, clad in a ratty fur coat and attended by her wild little boy, Gunther, soon becomes Eveline's closest friend and confidante, and together it seems they might be able to survive the loneliness of backwoods life. But one ngiht the unthinkable happens: a stranger arrives, and Eveline becomes pregnant. Terrified of what Emil might believe if he returned to find her new baby, she gives the child away, and while Hux grows up hunting and fishing with his parents, his sister, Naamah, is raised an orphan. Years later, haunted by the knowledge of this forsaken girl, Hux follows the only clues he can - a fur coat, a small box, a folded slip of paper - to find his sister and bring her home to the cabin. But Naamah, even wilder than the wilderness that surrounds them, may make it impossible for Hux ever to tame her, ever to make up for all that she, and they, have lost. Set before a backdrop of vanishing forest, Evergreen is an achingly beautiful story of those who choose to live beyond the boundaries of civilization, and the ache for companionship that binds these people together. When Rebecca Rasmussen published her first novel, The Bird Sisters, the St. Louis-Post Dispatch hailed her debut for possessing "the sturdy literary bones of pastoral masterworks such as Jane Smiley's A Thousand Acres and Marilynee Robinson's Housekeeping." With Evergreen, Rasmussen once again captures the glory and hardship of rural America and proves her place as one of our country's true natural-born storytellers. -- Jacket flap.
