Another great text from Louise Erdrich that explores the complexity of not-so-traditional families. I personally like Love Medicine more as I felt those characters were more fascinating and hard to read, but The Beet Queen is a great cross-generational examination of family dynamics. A good read for a mother/ teenage daughter who may not be seeing eye to eye.
