Helpful Score: 2

The movie "Smoke Signals" is actually based on several of the stories in this book. But having seen the movie before I read the book, I found myself preferring the movie (just slightly). There was more cohesiveness in the narrative of the film. But Sherman Alexie is a writer of no small skill, and his works are definitely worth reading whether you are in Native American studies, American studies, or just a fan of the short story. I read it based on the recommendation of a Native Lit professor.
