Dr. Treuer, your amazing novel hit me with the same, breathtaking power of Toni Morrison's "Beloved" and Louise Erdrich's "The Night Watchman". I bought copies as gifts and have been heartily recommending it. Viewing American culture/government as being in toddler stages of healing and reconciliation is a helpful analogy, as is your election analysis. Great show, Levi Rickert!
