Un Grand Pas Vers Le Bon Dieu by Jean Vautrin
Set in pioneer-era Louisiana, this multigenerational saga follows a French "Cadjin" family — the determined pioneer Edius Raquin, his wife Bazelle, their daughter Azeline, and the people who shape their lives, including the outlaw Farouche Ferraille Crowley and the Nantucket sailor Palestine Northwood — as their story moves from the bayous to New Orleans amid changing times and the rise of jazz.
