And he has passed through so many indifferent families that he can’t believe that his new one will last.\n\nIn the ensuing months Terry and Laura will struggle to emerge from their shell of grief only to face an unexpected threat to their marriage; Terry’s involvement with another woman. Meanwhile, Alfred cautiously enters the family circle, and befriends an elderly neighbor who inspires him with the story of the buffalo soldiers, the black cavalrymen of the old West. Out of the entwining and unfolding of their lives, The Buffalo Soldier creates a suspenseful, moving portrait of a family, infused by Bohjalian’s moral complexity and narrative assurance.\n\nLook for Chris Bohjalian's new novel, The Lioness!\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0375725466\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0375725466.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bohjalian, Chris\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44525117308989,"sku":"BVV.0375725466.VG","price":6.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/0375725466-0.jpg?v=1794522655","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/the-buffalo-soldier-a-novel-vintage-contemporaries","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
