Book Chat with Anna Katsavos: The Mighty Red (2024) by Louise Erdrich

Join fellow fiction enthusiasts to discuss critically acclaimed novels. This class focuses on The Mighty Red (2024) by Louise Erdrich.

Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning author's latest fiction is another heart-rending story illuminating the issues of identity, culture, past injustice, and present inequalities that haunt the Red River Valley and Ojibwe communities of North Dakota. Relationships and conflicts between those who work the land and those who own it are the backdrop of a love triangle between young Kismet Poe and her two high school suitors. As with Erdich's previous works, this novel is tender, disturbing, tragic, lonely, and hopeful as it depicts a prairie community through a narrative that transcends time.
