The Antidote by Karen Russell is a tale growing out of the 1930s prairies where the land was dried to dust and the people were losing whatever hope they might have had. Then came Black Sunday, a famous day where a storm of dust turned day to night. We witness this event through the senses of several people in the small town of Uz, Nebraska. It’s hard to describe this story in conventional terms: the setting is real but otherworldly; the characters are human but the prairie witch does have her “other skill”-relieving others of the weight of their memories; the government program photographer has the quantum camera; then there seems to be a sentient Scarecrow; oh, and there’s a serial killer around too. Memory becomes a commodity, untrustworthy or perhaps changed. So too with history, personal and community. There is magical prose in this novel and there are magical events. Time becomes fluid and the story of the settlement of the plains is relived. Russell has created an amazing vision of a town and people trying to survive in a hostile world without knowing or acknowledging their own part in past hostility. The chapters alternate among these several narrators which works well to advance the story, the action and the magic of the entire work. These characters are so full of life, so real, that I miss them now. Definitely recommended. Thanks to Knopf and NetGalley for an eARC of this book in return for an honest review.
