A contemporary classic from a major writer of the Native American renaissance 'Brilliant, brutal and, in my opinion, Welch's best work.'

The narrator of this beautiful, often disquieting novel is a young Native American man living on the Fort Belknap Reservation in Montana. Sensitive and selfdestructive, he searches for something that will bind him to the lands of his ancestors but is haunted by personal tragedy, the dissolution of his once proud heritage, and Montana's vast emptiness.
