There There is by Tommy Orange. A strange and shattering realistic fiction novel. The novel follows 12 Native American characters, each from their own point of view and perspective, as they travel to the Big Oakland Powwow. You get insights into all of the characters and what has brought them to the event and the horrifying shooting that occurs there and its aftermath. This book slips back and forth in time and between characters' voices - it is not always easy to follow and with 12 characters it is sometimes a challenge to remember who each of them are and how they are related to each other.
Ratings: Adult - 7 out of 10 - P (profanity) - AC (mature thematic content) - V (violence).
