Bingo Palace (Heftet (myke permer))
Louise Erdrich is one of the most gifted, prolific, and challenging of American novelists. Her fiction reflects aspects of her mixed heritage: German through her father, and French and Ojibwa through her mother. She is the author of six previous novels for adults, the first of which, "Love Medicine", won the National Book Critics Circle Award. She lives in Minnesota with her children, who help her run a small independent bookstore called The Birchbark.
A reissue of a much loved classic, from one of America's most celebrated novelists. Seeking direction and enlightenment, Lipsha Morrissey, a charismatic young drifter, answers his grandmother's summons to return to his birthplace. As he tries to settle into a challenging new job on the reservation, he falls passionately in love for the first time. But the object of his desire, the beautiful Shawnee Ray, is in the midst of deciding whether to marry his boss, the wealthy reservation entrepreneur, Lyman Lamartine. Matters are further complicated when Lipsha discovers that Lyman is his rival in more ways than one. In league with an influential group of aggressive business men, Lyman has chosen to open a gambling complex on reservation land -- a development which threatens to destroy the community's fundamental links with the past!
Beautiful reissue, part of repackaged backlist that will boost Erdrich's profile Includes an illuminating PS section with an author profile and new essay by Eithne Farry, literary editor at Elle magazine. Erdrich's most recent novel, The Master Butcher's Singing Club, was a Top Ten bestseller in the US
