Historical
She calls herself Ash, but that's not her real name. She is a farmer's faithful
wife, but she has left her husband to don the uniform of a Union soldier in the
Civil War. NEVERHOME tells the harrowing story of Ash Thompson during the
battle for the South. Through bloodshed and hysteria and heartbreak, she
becomes a hero, a folk legend, a madwoman and a traitor to the American
cause. Laird Hunt's dazzling new novel throws a light on the adventurous
women who chose to fight instead of stay behind. It is also a mystery story: why
did Ash leave and her husband stay? Why can she not return? What will she
have to go through to make it back home? In gorgeous prose, Hunt's rebellious
young heroine fights her way through history, and back home to her husband,
and finally into our hearts.
