A lot of characters, however the short chapters helped me keep sane as I sorted them all out. By the end, they were each so real to me. I was very impressed with Erdrich's writing and storytelling. I appreciate that this was inspired by her grandfather's life. There is a lot we can learn from others if we are willing to listen.
