![]() ![]() In his anguish, Landreaux turns to an Ojibwe tradition that holds that he must give his own son, LaRose, to Dusty’s parents. ![]() Landreaux Iron, an Ojibwe man, accidentally shoots and kills Dusty, the five-year-old son of his best friend, who is not a member of the tribe. As in The Round House, the story explores the quest for justice and the thirst for retribution. Erdrich reads fluently, at a conversational pace that easily draws listeners in. She reads with a soft but authoritative voice that works so well with her subject matter-the lives of contemporary Ojibwe in North Dakota torn between their modern ideas and sensibilities and the traditions of their ancestors. Novelist extraordinaire Erdrich proves she is also a gifted voice actor in the audio edition of her latest novel. ![]()
