This book is phenomenal. I was fortunate enough to meet LeAnne Howe, and she is as lovely and brilliant as this novel.

This fragmented narrative is a wonderful illustration of a nonlinear concept of time. Howe's work is not only innovative and thus refreshing, but it is also a fascinating opening into a culture that is still silenced. . . . The obviously thoroughly researched historical facts and their inclusion into the narrative never feel cumbersome in the hands of such a wordsmith. I highly recommend this novel.

what a lovely wild ride. definately howe's best book to date. she manages to mix indians, baseball, time travel, mathmatics and oral history together and come out with an eminently readable novel.

I think I actually liked this book better than Shell Shaker, what with the time travel and all.

I LIKE stories with Indians in them,but this was so tedious that I had to stop reading it.
