James Alexander Thom - Tecumseh

Uit de boekenkast van mijn vader, deze vuistdikke biografische roman, die heerlijk wegleest en me toch achterliet met een dubbel gevoel.

175 jaar na de dood van de vrijheidsstrijder Tecumseh is het een witte kolonistenzoon die het boek schrijft. Volgens mij heeft hij het integer proberen te doen, vanuit het perspectief van de ‘indianen’, echt onderzoek gedaan en vast met goedkeuring van Shawnee, zoals zijn vrouw.

Maar toch.

US Book Show Highlights Big Books, AI, and the Value of Direct Sales: Self-Publishing News with Dan Holloway

Spending the morning with The Essential Plato. I am currently on Protagoras.

I started reading this in May of last year and have been slowly making my way through. I haven't picked it up in a while though.
