Summary:
NOW A SIGNIFICANT MOTION PICTURE
One of the most acclaimed books in recent storage, Charles Frazier’s Chilly Hill is a masterpiece that’s at once an enthralling adventure, a stirring like tale, and a luminous evocation of a vanished American in every its savagery, solitude, and splendor.
Sorely wounded and fatally disillusioned in the fighting at Petersburg, Inman, a Confederate soldier, decides to walk back to his home in the Blue Ridge Mountains also to Ada, the girl he loved right now there years before. His trek across the disintegrating South provides him into close and sometimes lethal speak to slaves and marauders, bounty hunters and witches, both useful and malign. At the same time, Ada is trying to regenerate her father’s derelict farm and figure out how to survive in a global where the old certainties have already been swept apart. Since it interweaves their tales, Cold Mountain asserts itself as a geniune American Odyssey–hugely powerful, majestically lovely, and keenly shifting.
