Silent Reading Book Club: The Buffalo Hunter Hunter

The One Book One San Diego selection, The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones, intertwines history and horror in a gripping tale of vengeance and survival. This captivating story will be the focus of our book club meeting in November. About the book: A diary, written in 1912 by a Lutheran pastor is discovered within a wall. What it unveils is a slow massacre, a chain of events that go back to 217 Blackfeet dead in the snow. Told in transcribed interviews by a Blackfeet named Good Stab, who shares the narrative of his peculiar life over a series of confessional visits. This is an American Indian revenge story written by one of the new masters of horror, Stephen Graham Jones. “Inventive and spine-tingling…a master class in voice. Queasy, uneasy, The Buffalo Hunter Hunter plays with the interplay between religion and historical guilt, identity and appetite.” —The Washington Post Copies are available for download via Libby, or request a copy at any of our County Library branches.
