Only approved Indians: stories: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Only approved Indians: stories" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

In these short stories, Jack D. Forbes captures the remarkable breadth and variety of American Indian life. Drawing on his skills as scholar and native activist, and, above all, as artist, Forbes enlarges our sense of how American Indians experience themselves and the world around them.Though all the main characters are of Indian descent, each is a unique combination of tribal origin, social status, age, and life-style-from native elder and college professor to lesbian barmaid and Chicano adolescent. Nevertheless the U.S. government (and perhaps white society as a whole) narrows the definition of Indian.
