SUMMARY:Josh Weil discusses his new novel "What Came West"

DESCRIPTION:Wednesday September 23rd  7:00 to 8:00 pm \nA gripping tale o
 f murder and pursuit set against the shifting Sierra Nevada during the Gol
 d Rush\, where ambition\, violence\, and destiny collide. \n“What Came W
 est is astonishing. Unraveling the mythology of the Western with a genius
  for insight and description\, Weil tells the story anew: a beautiful\, ru
 minative\, bloody\, terrifying and brilliant book about a chapter in the l
 ife of one man and in the life of our country. Unmissable.” –Andrew Se
 an Greer\, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less \nSierra Nevada\, 1840s\
 , just before the Gold Rush ignites. Silas Hall has never belonged anywher
 e except the wild. Bullied as a child and uneasy even within his own famil
 y\, he finds brief solace in love and fatherhood before the pull of the fr
 ontier overwhelms him. One day he heads west\, chasing a life that might f
 inally make sense. \nWhat follows is a swift\, pulse-pounding journey into
  the mountains\, where Silas becomes one of the first white settlers to cr
 oss into the Sierra Nevada. He forges a precarious peace with the Indigeno
 us people who live there–until the Gold Rush crashes in with violent for
 ce. As thousands flood the region\, the balance shatters\, and Silas commi
 ts murder\, a desperate act that alters the course of every life around hi
 m\, including his own. \nTaut and propulsive\, What Came West is told in
  two parallel voices–one a tense\, third-person account of Silas on the 
 run\, and the other a confessional letter from Silas to the son he left be
 hind–and confronts many different forms of American inheritance\, in all
  its danger\, emotional voltage\, and mythic momentum. Weil’s masterpiec
 e is a fierce\, heart-driven portrait of an outsider racing toward belongi
 ng and barreling headlong into consequence.
