A review by librarysue
The Plague of Doves by Louise Erdrich

3.5

I listened to an audio-download of this, and then had to go back and actually READ a print copy in order to make sense of it all.  Erdrich writes beautifully, but often makes her readers plow through a series of apparently unrelated vignettes before the whole thing finally coalesces.  As always, there is humor and pathos galore;  the history of 20th C native Americans is a painful one at best.  This is not my favorite of her books, but Erdrich remains a masterful chronicler of our country's native peoples.
