Dr. Apelles, a translator of ancient texts, has made an unsettling
discovery: a manuscript that has languished for years, written in a
language that only he speaks. Moving back and forth between the
scholar and his text, from a lone man in a labyrinthine archive to
a pair of beautiful young Indian lovers in an unspoiled and snowy
woodland, David Treuer weaves together two love stories.
Enthralling and suspenseful, "The Translation of Dr. Apelles "dares
to redefine the Native American novel.
