The Toughest Indian in the World

Sherman Alexie is one of the most important and authoritative young voices in American literature, and in this best-selling collection of short stories, he introduces us to the kind of American Indians we rarely see in literature. Alexie's characters are quintessentially American - professionals whose upwardly mobile lives make them yearn for escape, married couples struggling with fidelity, ordinary folk falling in and out of love and wondering if they will make their way home.
Witty, tender, and fierce, The Toughest Indian in the World is a virtuoso performance by one of the country's finest writers.
