The Antelope Wife: A Novel

The Story

Originally an important hunting ground for the Ojibway, Minneapolis draws many Native people from nearby reservations, who infuse the city with a strong and ongoing Native presence as well as a potent indigenous past. This story brings to life the people who live in or around this midwestern city. And like a modern city itself, it portrays people of all backgrounds and is a mixture of vibrant cultures and ideas. But also like a modern city, it has an edge, troubled by violence.
