This is a love story. A story of love, longing, and escape BUT it also tells of growing up as an Indian in the 1940's. How the main character was treated by the whites heavily influenced her as a child and on into adulthood. Louise White Elk grew up in poverty, fear, and anger. This is beautifully written. To me this was a very sad book....I found it hard to believe people could have been treated like this.
