A review by ursulamonarch
The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse by Louise Erdrich

I felt pretty mixed on this book and ultimately wanted to like it a lot more than I actually did. I found the writing often melodramatic and, at times, confusing. I tried to accept that this might be a portrayal of different experience of time and reality but... I had difficulty with it. I enjoyed how many reviews discussed weaving a narrative, rather than a single linear narrative being created... more in theory than in practice. I'm not really sure what the author was saying about a lot of topics - gender, religion, time, music - which could mean that I just didn't read it deeply enough. I also read this in quite a book slump and had a hard time moving through it.
