"We all came to the powwow for different reasons. The messy, dangling threads of our lives got pulled into a braid--tied to the back of everything we'd been doing all along to get us here. There will be death and playing dead, there will be screams and unbearable silences, forever-silences, and a kind of time-travel, at the moment the gunshots start, when we look around and see ourselves as we are, in our regalia, and something in our blood will recoil then boil hot enough to burn through time and place and memory. We'll go back to where we came from, when we were people running from bullets at the end of that old world. The tragedy of it all will be unspeakable, that we've been fighting for decades to be recognized as a present-tense people, modern and relevant, only to die in the grass wearing feathers."

Jacquie Red Feather is newly sober and trying to make it back to the family she left behind in shame in Oakland. Dene Oxendene is pulling his life together after his uncle's death and has come to work the powwow and to honor his uncle's memory. Edwin Black has come to find his true father. Thomas Frank has come to drum the Grand Entry. Opal Viola Victoria Bear Shield has come to watch her nephew Orvil Red Feather; Orvil has taught himself Indian dance through YouTube videos, and he has come to the Big Oakland Powwow to dance in public for the very first time. Tony Loneman is a young Native American boy whose future seems destined to be as bleak as his past, and he has come to the Powwow with darker intentions--intentions that will destroy the lives of everyone in his path.

读后感

一有时间就看，坐车等车睡前看，四天看完了。Tommy的文字运用能力真的很好啊！Dene记录下了这些不同人物的故事，叙述手法不一样才会有人称变化，就好像你拍电影都有不同手法叙述分段故事。人物也没那么多，手边突然想起的例子就是原来有个爆米花电影好像叫全城热恋，也是不同手...

用户评价

These heavy lives deserve a heavier ending!

当时看觉得一般，但是后劲很大，总是念念不忘一些画面????

路上读书解读： 在故事的最后，死亡还是重生，所有人的命运似乎都是悬而未决的。在书里，我们看到了那些被称为美国原住民的人们支离破碎的命运。年老的人，一生都在漂泊，活得颠沛流离；而年轻的人，好一些的，满怀希望，执着地追求文化和身份的认同，更多的，沉迷在毒品和网络的虚幻世界里醉生梦死。当他们年纪渐长，或许仍将重复自己父辈祖辈的命运。

不喜欢这本书，不好好说故事，人称变换太频繁，看到看到就晕了。开篇一系列美国土著印第安人遭迫害的血腥画面……看到书68%真的不想看了，阅读体验不好，不推荐。

政治意义比文学意义重要，让人们开始关注美国Native Indian的生存状况。小说人物情节设计过于刻意，节奏到中后部有些拖沓，虎头蛇尾。
