Love Medicine

Louise Erdrich

A linked novel set on an imaginary reservation, where the memories of several families and generations intersect. It layers love and loss, oral tradition and modern conflict.

Reviews

  • Tamaño adecuado

    Es el tamaño standard para libros.

  • Native Indian family saga.

    Love all her books, great stories and family connections.

  • Another Erdrich treat

    Another great novel. I'll bet they would be better if I read them in order but since I am not they are still teffific stories. All of the characters have their own unique parts and yet they are interwound with each other.

  • Please Title Your Chapters

    If you are reading this for a Lit Class do yourself a favor and give titles to the chapters so later you can come back and find what you are looking for. This book has so much in it and it doesn't follow a strict chronological order because much of it is reminiscing by the characters. Very interesting story about acceptance of change. Some people do well-others not so much. Satisfying ending.

  • great book

    Good book, interesting and leaves you guessing and discussing more and more. Great literature to read for fun or to use in an adult class
