Young Hiram Walker was born into bondage. When his mother was sold away, Hiram was robbed of all memory of herâ"but was gifted with a mysterious power. Years later, when Hiram almost drowns in a river, that same power saves his life. This brush with death births an urgency in Hiram and a daring scheme: to escape from the only home heâs ever known.
So begins an unexpected journey that takes Hiram from the corrupt grandeur of Virginiaâs proud plantations to desperate guerrilla cells in the wilderness, from the coffin of the Deep South to dangerously idealistic movements in the North. Even as heâs enlisted in the underground war between slavers and the enslaved, Hiramâs resolve to rescue the family he left behind endures.
This is the dramatic story of an atrocity inflicted on generations of women, men, and childrenâ"the violent and capricious separation of familiesâ"and the war they waged to simply make lives with the people they loved. Written by one of todayâs most exciting thinkers and writers, The Water Dancer is a propulsive, transcendent work that restores the humanity of those from whom everything was stolen.
Praise for The Water Dancer
âTa-Nehisi Coates is the most important essayist in a generation and a writer who changed the national political conversation about race with his 2015 memoir, Between the World and Me. So naturally his debut novel comes with slightly unrealistic expectationsâ"and then proceeds to exceed them. The Water Dancer . . . is a work of both staggering imagination and rich historical significance. . . . Whatâs most powerful is the way Coates enlists his notions of the fantastic, as well as his fluid prose, to probe a wound that never seems to heal. . . . Time less and instantly canon-worthy.ââ"Rolling Stone
