I really enjoy Erdrich. This one has a lot of build up, but it's well worth it. The last half is wonderfully woven with moments of profound beauty and depth.

I wanted to like this book more than I did. It was a good read with many interesting themes, but found it hard to follow the many intricacies of the plot. There was way too much going on. Regardless, the writing was beautiful and I enjoyed the story.
