Description:
<DIV><DIV><B>“Stunning” short stories by the National Book Award–winning author of <I>The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven</I> (<I>The Atlanta Journal-Constitution</I>).</B><BR />  </DIV>In this bestselling volume of stories, National Book Award winner Sherman Alexie challenges readers to see Native American Indians as the complex, modern, real people they are. The tender and tenacious tales of <I>The Toughest Indian in the World</I> introduce us to the one-hundred-eighteen-year-old Etta Joseph, former co-star and lover of John Wayne, and to the unnamed narrator of the title story, a young Indian journalist searching for togetherness one hitchhiker at a time. <DIV><BR /> Countless other brilliant creations leap from Alexie’s mind in these nine stories. Upwardly mobile Indians yearn for a more authentic life, married Indian couples push apart while still cleaving together, and ordinary, everyday Indians hunt for meaning in their lives. The <I>Toughest Indian in the World </I>combines anger, humor, and beauty into radiant fictions, fiercely imagined, from one of America’s greatest writers.<BR />  <DIV><I>This ebook features an illustrated biography including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.</I></DIV></DIV><DIV> </DIV></DIV>
