Never Get Mad at Your Sweetgrass Author:Joseph R. McGeshick “Shaped by the day-to-day lives of people on the Ft. Peck Reservation, the stories in Never Get Mad At Your Sweetgrass take the reader down bumpy roads and highways—on a journey full of laughs, sorrows, hopes and dreams. McGeshick gives voice and vision to the experience of what it means to grow up American Indian in a place transformed from tri... more »bal homeland to just simply ‘home,’ where we live now. It’s all there—dispossession, loss, regret—but we feel rich for knowing the hope and resilience, too, through McGeshick’s tough and tender prose. A great book that is sure to take an important place in contemporary Native American literature!” —Kate Shanley, Chair, American Indian Studies, The University of Montana “Raw, funny, honest prose punctuates the stories in Joe McGeshick’s Never Get Mad At Your Sweetgrass. But more than that, his characters cross the boundaries of our staid political correctness, our social awkwardness, and cut to the heart of living the hard, vivid experiences of day-to-day life. McGeshick’s voice speaks of his American Indian heritage and, like all good fiction, resonates with truth.” —Seabring Davis, Editor Big Sky Journal, Bozeman, Montana« less
