Search - Love Medicine

This is the first book in Louise Erdrich's Native American series and this copy is a new and expanded edition. I loved this book, the characters are powerfully written, their stories are based on a strong multigenerational culture. If this is your first opportunity to read Louise Erdrich you will finish with a desire to read other books in this series.

beautifully written, very moving piece on Native American life

Remarkable first novel by one of my favorite authors who has gone on to even greater greatness. This a great, poetic read, sensitively written, with characters you won't soon forget because they are Real.

What a wonderful writer! I enjoyed this book, but have to admit I struggled a bit trying to keep the characters straight in my mind. It could've been the way so many characters were relatives, or their names, or, maybe, I wasn't paying attention; I do have a tendency to read only a few pages at a time each day. I do recommend it, though, especially to those readers with good memories!

another great book...

Just couldn't get into it. Boring. I really wanted to like it.
