In March 1867, Ezekiel Washington, a Black veteran of the 5th U.S. Colored Troops, files a homestead claim on 160 acres of Nebraska prairie. He builds a soddie with his own hands, breaks the sod, plants corn, and waits for the land to become his. Five years later, a rigged hearing strips him of everything.
In 1885, a Bohemian immigrant family purchases the land, never knowing who built the house they now call home. In 1993, Marcus Cole arrives at the prison built on that same ground. Over fifteen years, he learns the story of the man who first claimed it.
The Held Land is the fourth novel in the Fractional Fiction series, spanning 159 years on a single quarter-section of land to ask: What do we inherit? What do we owe? And what does the ground remember when we forget?
