- She writes about being lured from her mother's Dakota home to a missionary boarding school, and the scene where she hides under a bed while they come to cut her hair will stay with you. Quiet, angry, tender pieces, short enough to read in an evening.

The storytelling feels spoken aloud, with a quiet strangeness that rewards reading slowly rather than rushing from tale to tale.
