My confession is really your confession. You created the fake Indians you needed to satisfy a liberal, sometimes even radical, consciousness about the guilt over the treatment of Indians in the United States.

So, my cousin declared that the faculty should imitate the barks of the mongrels to save the university from the absence of irony.

The dean was clearly obliged by the controversial appointment of the seventh chairman, in as many years, to name the academic position the Chair of Tears in the Department of Wounded Hearts.

4/5 Stars (%75/100) I have always been fan of trickster culture and archetype. This is why people like Loki, Susanoo, Iktomi or Whiskey Jack really make me happy. This book is essentially about Native American trickster culture. It really represents the culture but on the other hand, it makes it very complicated. The narrator of the story/ies is

3/5 Stars (%66/100) Gerald Vizenor is an extremely underrated writer. His books are very unique and difficult to read but he is truly a genius-level writer in my opinion. Hotline Healers is a collection of eleven short stories. The stories are mostly linked to each other. The main character is a man named Almost Browne. He considers himself a "crossblood trickster." Vizenor himself is some kind of a trickster because of his unique and usually mind-blowing writing style. (This can be observed especially in Chair of Tears.) Storytelling is very important in Native-American culture. Browne loves to tell stories himself. I love the character of Almost Browne and the one thing that I clearly remember from the book is the fact that Browne sells blank books. People who buy those blank books think this is very unique and postmodern which is ironic because the book (Hotline Healers) is also very unique and postmodern. Extremely interesting characters, fun and enjoyable stories, and the language is beautiful. Vizenor is truly a master storyteller.
