Review # 1 was written on 2010-07-05 00:00:00 Bruce Odle Sometimes I wonder if Sherman Alexie is just messing with me the way/he creates unique forms/on the page/the lines centered/or justified/or separated/with slashes./But then/he creates/beauty/out of fry bread/and Pepsi/and basketball/and alcohol/and I turn/the page/one more/time. 1. I like the following pieces because of their form: --Year of the Indian, Fire Storm, Family Cookbook 2. I like the following pieces because of their final lines: --Tiny Treaties ("because I don't want to know the truth") --Split Decisions ("he stood up") 3. I like the following pieces just because: --Freaks, I Would Steal Horses, All I Wanted to Do Was Dance
