Sherman Alexie's collection brings together stories from his earlier books, plus new ones, about Native Americans on and off the reservation. His characters include basketball players, poets, drunks and the people who love them, in a mix of humor, anger and sadness, with stories such as The Toughest Indian in the World. He writes about poverty and identity.
It is for readers of contemporary American fiction who want a direct view of Native life. It offers a good overview of an author's range.
Balanced in tone; an easy read.
