Sadness of the earth, author: Éric Fuyard

The novel "The Sad Land" is a serious attempt by Éric Fuyard to depict a picture of the sad land that makes the reader dive into the midst of the conflicts that swept the land of the Native Americans. Éric reminds us, who used in his novel the methods of both the artist and the historian, of what happened to the Native Americans, the original inhabitants of America, and highlights the actions of American cowboys, who did not only kill the Native Americans once but enslaved them even more severely, enjoyed oppressing and humiliating them, and then killed them repeatedly during those Western shows that toured America and Europe. And because historical events are generally narratable, the narrative of "The Sad Land," which has become a sad land, reminds the reader of the widespread violations of human rights faced by the Native Americans, the original inhabitants of America, which ended with their complete extermination and the forced displacement of those still alive. Éric Fuyard absorbed these tragic historical events and rewrote his historical narrative within a space that expands to include historical memory.
