"The three books in this series span generations and decades, and depict love, hatred, magic and sadness through one reservation's struggle to both retain its people's culture and adapt to the demands of American society. Beautifully written and very powerful. Tracks is my favorite of the three."
"My husband had to read this book for a history course on Native Americans several years ago. When his eyes were too tired to read, I often read sections out loud to him. Those small glimpses of the book were intriguing and I have long intended to read it fully.
It is the story of a people on the edge of cultural and physical extinction. The characters are so alive and the story, told in first person by two alternative narrators, is vivid, mystical and entrancing."
"Brilliant. The richness and complexity of the themes involved definitely made me feel like I was reading an Important Book, but it was also so beautifully written and so easy to read that I felt like its deeper meaning was effortlessly absorbed. It's one of those books I would have loved to study in school with some kind of guidance, but I'm also glad I read it for pleasure. Definitely on my list to re-read and pick apart in a new way."
"Tracks is the third of Erdrich's novels, which I'm reading in order. Though sometimes difficult, vivid descriptions of her inter-woven characters and their lives are unvarnished, but at the same time hugely creative. I've learned much about Ojibwa culture, in the three different time periods covered by the novels."
