Industry Reviews
"[A] master tuner of the taut emotions that keen between parent and child, man and woman, brother and sister, man and beast..."
(01/04/2009)
"Not exactly realism, yet strangely realistic mythmaking." (Starred review.)
(12/01/2008)
"Louise Erdrich is an immensely satisfying storyteller who molds her novels from the clay of her short fiction...This anthology returns 30 of those stories, which eventually became parts of 11 novels, to their original, unentangled forms. The book also includes six other stories, some of which are being published for the first time."

"[Erdrich] often goes deepest when provoking laughter.... In many places, I laughed or gasped aloud at the gorgeous absurdity of [her] plot twists....Our mortal hearts need stories like these."
