Sherman Alexie

Reservation Blues

Pavonini

Very interesting. I thought I wasn't into it in the beginning, but kept coming back. Couldn't stop reading. It immersed me completely in a dream-like world. Very effective. I think this one will linger for a long time. I'll seek out more of his work. He walks a very fine line between detailing poverty and getting you to empathise (rather than just sympathise), and does it well. I really appreciated that.

Alexie manages to present the morose nature of Reservation life in a humorous fashion. It's not just a "laugh so you don't cry", it's legitimately cleverly written. The prose is smooth and the song lyrics at the beginning of each chapter relates to the mindset of Thomas Builds-The-Fire in the chapter.
