Sherman Alexie has been hailed as "one of the best writers we have"
(The Nation). Reservation Blues is his "irresistibly stunning debut
novel" (San Francisco Chronicle). One day legendary bluesman Robert
Johnson appears on the Spokane Indian reservation, in flight from
the devil and presumed long dead. When he passes his enchanted
instrument to Thomas-Builds-the-Fire--storyteller, misfit, and
musician--a magical odyssey begins that will take them from
reservation bars to small-town taverns, from the cement trails of
Seattle to the concrete canyons of Manhattan. This is a fresh,
luxuriantly comic tale of power, tragedy, and redemption among
contemporary Native Americans.
