Over the course of 13 years and five novels, Louise Erdrich has staked out a richly imagined corner of North Dakota soil--her own Yoknapatawpha, where every character is connected to every other and nothing can be said to happen for the first time.

The report in question comes from Father Damien Modeste, who has served the Ojibwe through a century of famine, epidemics, murders, and feuds. But the good priest is not what he appears.

Grade 7-10 - Science-Fiction, , African culture. The Ear, the Eye, and The Arm is one of the better books on the market this year. It definitely ranks as one to be recommended without reservations. It has tremendous value for a classroom as well - there are so many different layers that could be explored and lead to further research ( maybe you could use it for one of your reading/writing/listening  assignments next year). Regardless of its "educational" value, the entertainment value is high. It's a book  to re-read many times.
