THE MIGHTY RED by Louise Erdrich (sold out!)

Recommended by Sarah Bofenkamp: A member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa, an independent bookstore owner (please check out Birchbark Books), a Pulitzer Prize winning novelist and a weaver of community dramas, it’s no wonder that Louise Erdrich has garnered attention with this intricate new title.

Released just last month, and promptly consumed by me, The Mighty Red has proven itself to be a novel for our times. A book about choice and lack thereof; a story about the secrets of youth and the unanswerable needs of land and loss.
