What do you think about Sherman? I've never read his novels but I'm planning to this summer because he's a friend of the family. What are your thoughts?
Sherman Alexie
I enjoyed it enough, but it's not really 'literature'
>but it's not really 'literature'
isn't that Mr. The Evil White Man Made Me Do It from the minority sympathy poetry thing back then?
What are you talking about
ehhh just not good. he plays with truth so much that i find him unreliable. it's meant to be fun but it's not.
he came to read some of his works at a nearby uni in my flyover state. nice fellow
i don't really like how he keeps his works off epublishing to stop (people like me) pirates from distributing his works without him getting paid.
It was really helpful when I was in middle school to see things his unique take on life.
you might enjoy the nuances but the racial stuff gets a little old.
i can still remember how much the public schoolteachers advocated for me and my fellow non-whites to get involved with reading.
>people not reading Alexie for racial purposes
What's wrong with that?
>this is the same guy who hasn't read invisible man
