Tommy Orange did it again!! What an excellent follow up to “There, There”. The beginning of the novel felt disjointed while reading it, but by the end it really helped to illustrate the multi-generational trauma that indigenous people have inherited over the last two centuries. Lony made me cry so many times, I love that sweet character!
