ThunderCloud - Ronald Joseph Kule
- The Oddities of a Young Man's Journey to Manhood
ThunderCloud... begins with a front-row look into a troubled Native-American teenager's trial and ex-communication from his "Principal People" (the Cherokee). His struggles to survive in a world full of strangers, some good, some bad, in many ways mirror our own. ThunderCloud's external obstacles force him to confront his real and imaginary inner demons that led him to his lonely situation in life. What he discovers inside changes his outlook on his past, present, and future. The oddities of the individuals, cultures, and generations that come across his path challenge his manhood and determine his ability to relate to and live and work within a group. He learns -- and we do with him -- that, ultimately, every bit of his life, including the consequences of his decisions and actions, measures his responsibility level. Whether or not his tribe accepts him upon his return with a motley gaggle of people and numerous stories to tell is his final challenge after rescuing a gang of youthful renegades, one precocious runaway, and the woman who may one day bear his children!
Reader Review:
"'THUNDERCLOUD ...' by Ronald Joseph Kule is a stunning novel! I enjoyed it very much. I loved reading about the shoo-fly pie - the first time I have heard about it." - Jean Hughes, avid book-reader from North Dakota.
