Description

Pulitzer prize-winning author Geraldine Brooks is back with Horse, an intricately crafted historical fiction novel that Jane Smiley calls the “best horse book [she’s] ever read.” Based on the true story of a record-breaking racehorse, Brooks braids narratives from 1850 Kentucky, 1994 New York City, and 2019 Washington DC into a sweeping novel about science, obsession, and injustice in America. TIME Magazine says “Horse isn’t just an animal story—it’s a moving narrative about race and art.” Sponsored by the Fairfax County Public Library.
