Read from July 11 to 13, 2012

Immediately after reading this book, based on a friend's recommendation, I read J Winterson's "Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal" for a book club. If you have to choose one, choose Harjo's! Similar stories in many ways, dealing with childhood trauma, but I connected with Harjo's story in a way I didn't with Winterson's (and I am not Native American). I'm not a big poetry reader, but the weaving of her poetry into the story is wonderful.
