Do you like horses? And the stories of love, adventure and freedom? If so, you may be interested in reading the book Horse, by the writer Geraldine Brooks, published in 2022. It is a historical novel that tells the life of a horse named Lexington and the people who surrounded him in different times and places.

Lexington was a famous 19th century racehorse, a descendant of the legendary Boston stallion. His story is intertwined with that of Jarrett, an enslaved youth who raised and trained him in Kentucky; Martha Jackson, an art collector who acquired his portrait in the 1950s; and Theo and Jess, two researchers who discovered his skeleton and painting of him in the 21st century. Through his eyes, the reader travels through the history of the United States, from slavery to the civil rights movement, from wars to science, from art to sports.

Scott¹², the chronicles of the Lexington races¹, and studies on his skeleton¹. However, she also created fictional characters and situations to bring the story to life. The result is a work that captures the beauty and spirit of horses, as well as the passions and conflicts of humans.

Horse is a novel that will make you feel intense emotions, from joy to sadness, from hope to outrage, from love to hate. It is a novel that will make you reflect on the past and the present, on freedom and oppression, on nature and culture. It is a novel that will make you admire an extraordinary horse and the people who loved him.
