Sinopsis
Charles Frazier, born in 1950, is an award-winning American historical novelist. His debut novel, Cold Mountain won the National Book Award in 1997. Utilizing the historical content of the Civil War, his novel explores social class transformation and change wrought from national upheaval. The story details the very different lives of three people. Inman, a wounded confederate soldier repelled by the violence and madness of the civil war, deserts from the military hospital and decides to walk back home to Cold Mountain to be reunited with his love, Ada Monroe. Ada’s father has since died and left her with a farm and no servants to help her run it. Ada must abandon her polite socialite ways and learn to fend for herself, while Ruby, a tough, tenacious local girl moves in with Ada and helps her to survive. The walk back home by Inman is filed with dangers and revelatory experiences. This tremendous, moving book is impressively researched and brilliantly written. National Book Award for Fiction (1997) , Exclusive Books Boeke Prize (1998) , Sue Kaufman Prize for First Fiction (1998)
