Sonen by Philipp Meyer
A multigenerational, morally complex saga that traces one Texan family's violent origins and transformation from frontier survival to oil-era power through three intertwined perspectives: the boy captured and raised by Comanches who becomes a hardened patriarch, his conflicted descendants who inherit wealth and brutality, and a later generation grappling with the legacy of blood, land, and exploitation; the novel examines violence, colonization, masculinity, and the human cost of American expansion.
