ReviewsLouise Erdrich is one of our era's most powerful literary voices. . . . In The Night Watchman Erdrich's blend of spirituality, gallows humor, and political resistance is at play. . . . It may be set in the 1950s, but the history it unearths and its themes of taking a stand against injustice are every bit as timely today., In powerfully spare and elegant prose, Erdrich depicts deeply relatable characters who may be poor but are richly connected to family, community and the Earth., Louise Erdrich rediscovers her genius...This narrator's vision is more capacious, reaching out across a whole community in tender conversation with itself. , Louise Erdrich is one of our era's most powerful literary voices...In The Night Watchman Erdrich's blend of spirituality, gallows humor, and political resistance is at play...It may be set in the 1950s, but the history it unearths and its themes of taking a stand against injustice are every bit as timely today., The Night Watchman is a singular achievement even for this accomplished writer. . . Erdrich, like her grandfather, is a defender and raconteur of the lives of her people., The irreverent and funny Tookie grapples with the ghost, then the pandemic, then the protests. Her journey, captured in Erdrich's expert prose, is a cathartic and comforting story that book lovers will gobble up., No one can break your heart and fill it with light all in the same book -- sometimes in the same paragraph -- quite like Louise Erdrich., Louise Erdrich rediscovers her genius. . . . This narrator's vision is more capacious, reaching out across a whole community in tender conversation with itself.

Synopsis"Dazzling. . . . A hard-won love letter to readers and to booksellers, as well as a compelling story about how we cope with pain and fear, injustice and illness. One good way is to press a beloved book into another's hands. Read The Sentence and then do just that."--USA Today, Four Stars In this New York Times bestselling novel, Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning author Louise Erdrich creates a wickedly funny ghost story, a tale of passion, of a complex marriage, and of a woman's relentless errors. Louise Erdrich's latest novel, The Sentence, asks what we owe to the living, the dead, to the reader and to the book. A small independent bookstore in Minneapolis is haunted from November 2019 to November 2020 by the store's most annoying customer. Flora dies on All Souls' Day, but she simply won't leave the store. Tookie, who has landed a job selling books after years of incarceration that she survived by reading "with murderous attention," must solve the mystery of this haunting while at the same time trying to understand all that occurs in Minneapolis during a year of grief, astonishment, isolation, and furious reckoning. The Sentence begins on All Souls' Day 2019 and ends on All Souls' Day 2020. Its mystery and proliferating ghost stories during this one year propel a narrative as rich, emotional, and profound as anything Louise Erdrich has written., "Dazzling. . . .
