Flight - Alexie, Sherman
The best-selling author of multiple award-winning books returns with his first novel in ten years, a powerful, fast and timely story of a troubled foster teenager -- a boy who is not a "legal" Indian because he was never claimed by his father -- who learns the true meaning of terror. He resurfaces in the form of an FBI agent during the civil rights era, inhabits the body of an Indian child during the battle at Little Big Horn, and then rides with an Indian tracker in the 19th Century before materializing as an airline pilot jetting through the skies today. About to commit a devastating act, the young man finds himself shot back through time on a shocking sojourn through moments of violence in American history.
This is Sherman Alexie at his most When finally, blessedly, our young warrior comes to rest again in his own contemporary body, he is mightily transformed by all he's seen.
