CONGRATULATIONS TO LOUISE ERDRICH!
I was thrilled to see that Louise Erdrich’s The Round House won the 2012 National Book Award. Her story about rape of a native American Woman, society reaction and her family’s rage is beyond compelling. Given these times when ‘rape’ was treated in such a cavalier way by the extreme right wing of the Republican party, I posted Mr Erdrich’s novel to exemplify just how cavalier our culture historically has treated this crime against women.
