Antelope Woman by Louise Erdrich

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Masterful stylist. In an interview at the end of the book, Erdrich says, "Shakespeare's history plays and The Three Stooges were major influences." As soon as I read that, I thought uh-huh. I've never been much of a Stooges fan, but perhaps they, the Marx Brothers, and Chaplin's Little Tramp are the truest personae in our narratives.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Fun history to read. Much of the information is available elsewhere, but it's packaged nicely here.
