Sherman Alexie’s stature as a writer of stories, poetry, and novels has soared over the course of his twenty-book, twenty-year career. His wide-ranging, acclaimed fiction throughout the last two decadesfrom
to his most recent PEN/Faulkner Awardwinning
have established him as a star in contemporary American literature.
A bold and irreverent observer of life among Native Americans in the Pacific Northwest, the daring, versatile, funny, and outrageous Alexie showcases his many talents in
, where he unites fifteen beloved classics with sixteen new stories in one sweeping anthology for devoted fans and first-time readers. Included here are some of his most esteemed tales, including What You Pawn I Will Redeem,” in which a homeless Indian man quests to win back a family heirloom; This Is What It Means to Say Phoenix, Arizona,” a road-trip morality tale; The Toughest Indian in the World,” about a night shared between a writer and a hitchhiker; and his most recent, War Dances,” about a man grappling with sudden hearing loss in the wake of his father’s death. Alexie’s new stories are fresh and quintessential, about donkey basketball leagues, lethal wind turbines, a twenty-four-hour Asian manicure salon, good and bad marriages, and all species of warriors in America today.
An indispensable Alexie collection,
reminds us, on every thrilling page, why Alexie is one of our greatest contemporary writers and a true master of the short story.
