A Spokane Indian journalist transplanted from the reservation to the city picks up a hitchhiker, a Lummi boxer looking to take on the toughest Indian in the world. A Spokane son waits for his diabetic father to come home from the hospital, tossing out the Hershey Kisses the father has hidden all over the house. An estranged interracial couple, separated in the midst of a traffic accident, rediscover their love for each other. A white drifter holds up an International House of Pancakes, demanding a dollar per customer and someone to love, and emerges with $42 and an overweight Indian he dubs Salmon Boy. Sherman Alexie's voice is one of remarkable passion, and these stories are love stories?between parents and children, white people and Indians, movie stars and ordinary people"--Publisher website (April 2008).   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Alexie Claimed Returned 07/06/2020 Add Copy to MyList
