Unabridged Audiobook
Brilliant.
I loved this book!
This was a very well written book and offers a perspective that is often ignored.
Amazing, and eye opening. Louise Erdrich masterfully pulls you into the story with her words.
A strong book that united disparate threads into a cohesive whole. Beautiful language and writing as a whole though some of the contemporary allusions felt strained at times. As for the audio quality, the narrator was acceptable, but it was clear at times that the audio was stitched together which distracted me from simply enjoying the book. At one point, I even thought the narrator might have changed it was such a significant difference in tonal pitch.
This book was like eating a quintuple-stuff Oreo cookie. The main plot was good as 2 tasty wafers. And the long, meandering (but delicious and interestingly filling) sub-sub-sub plot of "Indian" (the term used in the book) culture was fascinating and very educational. Louise Erdrich is amazingly savvy with the male perspective on life. The narrator was excellent. His voice and pace was reminiscent of Chief Dan George from "Outlaw Josie Wales." Relax, listen and enjoy this unique book.
