This was a really interesting read, and it was kind of haunting that it was being read by a woman who died so tragically and inspired social change. I definitely want to read Ms. Erdrich again - her writing feels so different. My least favorite story in this one was about the older couple - I just don't have a lot of energy for men being jealous and dumb.
