In full disclosure, I’ve been in literary lust with Sherman Alexie since I first read one of his books, and the lust lives. No, I’ve never met him. And I am NOT in lust with him, just his writing.
Also, my copy of Ten Little Indians is probably somewhat different than yours, as I read an “Uncorrected Proof.”
I love short stories. And these did not disappoint. I laughed in many, got sad in a couple, and angry in one or two. Most stories are funny, most offer insight and might give you something to think about. Like Rez humor? Read this book. There is a reason Alexie wins awards for his writing.
But why only 9 stories? Why not 10? Or did I miscount?
