The Seed Keeper

This was a very heavy-hitting book. The characters may be fictional, but Wilson does a fantastic job of making it feel like they are real.

This story branches over multiple generations of women from the Dakhota tribe. Seed keeping is the running theme through the book as it ties the ancestry together through the generations, from hiding the seeds as they were being murdered for land, or when their children were being stolen from them, or even using the seeds to help call their families home. I feel this is one that everyone should read. I will be keeping a copy of this for myself to revisit in the future.
