Before Seabiscuit, and War Admiral, Lexington was known as the best race horse of his day. A sweeping novel, with storylines crossing three centuries, "Horse" follows Lexington from Kentucky in 1850, through the Civil War with his enslaved groom, Jarret, to 1954 and an oil painting of mysterious provenance, to 2019 and the study of forgotten skeleton, and the black horsemen critical to his racing success. "Horse" is a novel of art and science, love and obsession, and our unfinished reckoning with racism.
