Dark, intense, but often funny stories of the everyday tragedy of modern life on a Native reservation in Maine. I liked how the stories revolved around the same cast of characters, and aside from the final story, tended to lighten their often dark subject matter with a good sense of humor.

I thought this was horror? It’s not. And the stories are not that interesting.

These were short stories that followed characters over time. They were sad, human, and eye opening to experiences of indigenous folx living on Reservations
