A review by ddillon154
You Don't Have to Say You Love Me by Sherman Alexie

5.0

Amazingly and exquisitely written, layering poetry, fiction, speculation, essay, and the kitchen sink into a compelling series of asynchronous, sometimes contradictory accounts that make up Alexie's life, family relationships, and anything else he could bare to include. The chapters shift and flow, swirling around critical life events before moving forward (and sometimes backward). Among his many talents, Alexie is a master of skillful repetition. That's high praise for me, who hates repetition in most things but not in this book.
