Book Description:
Set in North Dakota at a time in this century when Indian tribes were struggling to keep what little remained of their lands, Tracks is a tale of passion and deep unrest. Over the course of ten crucial years, as tribal land and trust between people erode ceaselessly, men and women are pushed to the brink of their endurance--yet their pride and humor prohibit surrender. The reader will experience shock and pleasure in encountering a group of characters that are compelling and rich in their vigor, clarity, and indomitable vitality.

What a haunting, unforgettable portrait of a struggling nation of people. Though this is a novel, the fact that Louise Erdrich is of American Indian descent assures the reader that there is much truth in this compelling story.

Author of Love Medicine and The Beet Queen, her third, and finest novel to date...In it the author captures the passions, fears, and doom of a living people, and she does so with an ease that leaves the reader breathless.

I loved the flow of this novel and the characters were quite vividly drawn. Good read.

Creepy and interesting at the same time, one never can be sure if these disasters are the result of chance or if they are actually being done by Fleur Pillager.

This is a story about American Indians. The families in this book are tied together by their loves, lies and losses. Heartwrenching and heartwarming. Louise Erdrich captures the elegance of the language......she is my favorite author.

This is one of my favorite books of all time. Louise Erdrich is brilliant at creating characters that will fascinate you. I highly recommend Tracks, Love Medicine, and The Beet Queen!
I liked this book. But I never finished reading it. So I don't feel qualified to present a comprehensive review.
