In this first full collection in nine years, Alexie's poems
and prose show his celebrated passion and wit while also
exploring new directions. Novelist, storyteller and
performer, he won the National Book Award for his YA novel,
THE ABSOLUTELY TRUE DIARY OF A PART-TIME INDIAN. His work
has been praised throughout the world, but the bedrock
remains what THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW said of his very
first book: "Mr. Alexie's is one of the major lyric voices
of our time."
