Written following the death of his mother in 2015, well-known writer Sherman Alexie opens up in this memoir about their difficult and fraught relationship, family secrets, his miserable childhood growing up on the Spokane reservation, and the inner demons with which he continues to wrestle as an adult. Though thought-provoking and eye-opening, this is also a painful and often distressing read. Catch his September 2017 interview on MPR for additional fascinating insights.
