The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian
$8.99
Junior lives on the Spokane Indian Reservation and decides to change his destiny by going to an off-reservation high school in a well-to-do white farming community. The book documents the misery of the reservation and the injustices of the wider society, but in the context of an ultimately triumphant freshman year.

Alexie's writing successfully puts you in Junior's shoes. You experience multiple personal tragedies and conflicts with friends but also his relentless determination and basic optimism. You might cry, but the dominant emotion of the book is laughter.

The most distinctive feature of the book is not its text but Ellen Forney's illustrations. She has perfectly capture the subject and range of a high-school cartoonist - - with careful still piece, thoughtful but cartoonish pictures of important people, and spur-of-the-moment doodles. The art is integral to the text and to the story, and represents one of the most remarkable collaborations of author and artist that I have seen.

This book by Geraldine Brooks is excellent. I am so glad I was able to find this copy of it. This would be a good companion piece to Reading Lolita in Tehran.

The parts included are as good as OEM and went in without a problem (though I didn't need, therefore attempt, to replace the worm.)
