Paperback Edition
Approx. Size: 8 x 5.25 inches : 158 pages
AIn the wild outback of the White Earth Chippewa reservation, a family of tricksters--liberation figures from Native American literature--rebels against convention, establishes ingenious business enterprises, and tells trickster stories far and wide.
In his superbly written satirical tales, Vizenor draws readers into the world of the Native American tribal trickster, "a warrior on a coin that never lands twice on the same side." The author imaginatively recounts the escapades of a family of Mississippi Chippewa tricksters living on a reservation in northern Minnesota, beginning with the grandfather, Lusterbow, "the Baron of Patronia."
Great condition with very little handling wear. Looks clean and bright and un-read.
