Description
Summary:"Louise Erdrich is one of the most important, prolific, and widely read contemporary Indigenous writers. Much of the growing body of scholarship on Erdrich analyzes earlier novels (especially Love Medicine, Tracks, and The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse). This collection of essays focuses specifically on the three novels that comprise Erdrich's justice trilogy-The Plague of Doves (2008), The Round House (2012), and LaRose (2016)-which are set in northern North Dakota, where small towns and reservation life bring together a vibrant cast of characters whose lives are shaped by history, identity, and community. The volume consists of an introduction and nine essays, and includes contextual materials (reader's guide chapters and a glossary of non-English words for all three novels, plus an interview with Erdrich)"-- Provided by publisher.
