if you have a free half hour...or even if you don't

Tuesday, August 4, 2009 |
Read this, from Sherman Alexie's forthcoming collection of short stories. I filched the link from Leila of Bookshelves of Doom. As I read I laughed a lot and cried a little bit and mostly felt wonderfully charmed and homesick. It's genius.

Alexie's works include The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven and The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian (for which he won a National Book Award), among others.

I just read The Absolutely True Story of a Part-Time Indian and it was fantastic!
I'll have to keep an eye out for this.
