Roofwalker by Susan Power

4.0

After each story in Roofwalker I kept having to flip back and look at the copyright date. This book has been out SIX years and I'm only now finding it? This should have hit my radar right away.

These are short stories about Indians by a Dakota author, and many have urban Indian characters (living in Chicago). The prose is just gorgeous without weighing down the story, and they're so beautifully crafted I know I'll end up reading this again. I have the feeling I won't be as crazy about her novel, Grass Dancer, but it's going in the queue for sure.
