Overview
Luke Warmwater is a Vietnam veteran who made it through the war only to find that "surviving the peace" is its own kind of battle. Back home on the "rez," where the cars are rusty and the pockets are often empty, Luke navigates a world of bingo halls, tribal politics, and the enduring pull of tradition.
Through forty interconnected stories and poems, Jim Northrup captures the heartbeat of modern Anishinaabe life. With a sharp eye for detail and a voice that is both raw and lyrical, Northrup blends the devastation of the past with a resilient, rebellious humor. This is a journey through the "land of sky-blue waters" that reveals the profound strength found in family, community, and the power of a well-told story.
