ReviewsA remarkable first novel that stares more boldly at many of the truths of Native American life in the country than any fiction I've read.... It is a deeply, if ironically, spirited novel., We know we are in the hands of an exceptionally skilled, sensitive, observant writer ... Love Medicine is the work of a tough, loving mind., A wondrous prose song . . . about the enduring verities of love and surviving, and these truths are revealed in a narrative that is an invigorating mixture of the cosmic and the tragic., A powerful piece of work . . . Louise Erdrich is the rarest kind of writer; as compassionate as she is sharp-sighted
