A wild swath of a book that covers so many issues in such a beautiful and nuanced way. Erdrich is a master.
Graphic: Cultural appropriation, Death, and Pandemic/Epidemic
Moderate: Racial slurs, Mental illness, Racism, Police brutality, Violence, and Homophobia
Very embedded in the 2020 timeframe - so if that time (COVID & the civil unrest re: racism) is still painful to recall, I would avoid this book.
