A review by mnboyer
Green Grass, Running Water by Thomas King

3.0

A story that is rich with the oral tradition, satire, well-molded characters, and a lot of fun. Perhaps this is a novel that you need to read a few times to fully appreciate, but after the first reading I mostly just feel "meh" about the novel. Is it good? Sure. Would I read it again at a later point? Maybe. If a friend wanted to read a book with a lot of oral tradition and multiple POVs would I hand them this? Of course.

If someone wanted to read a Thomas King novel, would this be the one that I would recommend first? No...
