CLOUD CHAMBER
MICHAEL DORRIS
Scribner. 320 pp. $24.
Our nation has traditionally been called a melting pot. In truth, it is a cloth - a whole woven from myriad, and disparate, threads. This notion comes alive in the novel Cloud Chamber, which traces a lineage through five generations. Author Michael Dorris begins his tale in late 19th-century Ireland and finishes it on a Montana Indian reservation in the 1990s. In so doing, he knits the African-American, Native American and Anglo-American experiences into one family.
