War Dances

This is a collection of tender, witty, and soulful stories that capture modern relationships from diverse angles. War Dances is filled with Alexie's poetic and revolutionary prose, reminding readers of his status as one of the country's finest writers. The stories feature average folks on the brink of exceptional change, such as a son recalling his father's "natural Indian death" from alcohol and diabetes, a vintage clothing store owner's failing marriage, and courtship of a Puma-clad stranger in airports, and a film editor's fateful confrontation with a youth. Alexie's work takes readers to the heart of what it means to be human, revealing the new beginnings, successes, mistakes, and regrets that make up our daily lives.
