Helpful Score: 3

Alexie published this book at the young age of 26. He offers insight into being an Indian, and even pokes fun at himself and his culture; something we Indians do to make light of our often weary situation. Most poigniantly, the story Ghosts of Salmon is the heart of this book. Read this story and consider it above and beyond all "green" literature and Al Gore stories we hear today. Alexie, prior to the trend, had a strong understanding of what was going on prior to the term "global warming." Seeing the movie Smoke Signals does not do this book justice.
