Rezensionen

"Frazier is in top form.... Period-authentic, and the writing hums with spectacular word-images.... [A] propulsive tale of individualistic characters striving to beat the odds." - Booklist (starred review)

"The book's continental scope proves that the lavishly talented Charles Frazier is not just a regional novelist. "The Trackers" is a novel of suspense with an all-American sting."
- Washington Post

"Frazier deftly blends an historical perspective throughout his fictional tale...Even though it's set 86 years ago, there are moments that are eerie in their echoes of the present...There's a lot more worth savoring in "The Trackers," including reflections on the meaning of art, the mythos of the American West, and what it really takes to start again. But Val is our narrator and after a transcontinental adventure, the book satisfyingly ends where it began, with Val working on his mural in Dawes, Wyoming, adding a couple final details to complete the painting."
