A Home for Easter is the story of a Cherokee family that is forced to go in different directions in an effort to survive the 1830s removal period for First Nations people. The major character, Easter, journeys to middle Tennessee to find a new home for herself and her unborn child. However, along the way, she is hunted by a criminal who wants her ancestral lands. She and her companion, Arter, brave a snowstorm and the criminal who kidnaps her. Easter's brother, Degataga, remains on the family lands but must sacrifice to do so. Her sister, Lucinda, settles with Walking Bird in the Qualla territory of North Carolina. An important character in Easter's story is her half-sister, Awinta, who represents many First Nation African Americans who were either enslaved by the Cherokee or lived with them and other clans. The story offers an explanation for how groups of people, such as African Americans and the Indigenous, survived and merged during stressful, genocide-like political, social and economic events. The matrilineal nature of the Cherokee family is explored along with the notions of polyandry.
