Reprint.
Review:
"A masterful tale that combines the wit of Sherman Alexie with the old-fashioned storytelling of Olive Ann Burns....King [is] more interested in being human first and Indian second...."

Truth and Bright Water (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780802138408) King, Thomas Quantity Available: 10
Book Description: Grove Press / Atlantic Monthly Press, United States, 2001. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Reprint. 210 x 138 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Thomas King is a writer of lyrical, comic poignancy, and a best-selling author in Canada. Of his latest novel, Newsday wrote, "Thomas King has quietly and gorgeously done it again". Truth Bright Water tells of a summer in the life of Tecumseh and Lum, young Native-American cousins coming of age in the Montana town of Truth, and the Bright Water Reserve across the river in Alberta. It opens with a mysterious woman with a suitcase, throwing things into the river -- then jumping in herself. Tecumseh and Lum go to help, but she and her truck have disappeared. Other mysteries puzzle Tecumseh: whether his mom will take his dad back; if his rolling-stone aunt is home to stay; why no one protects Lum from his father's rages. Then Tecumseh gets a job helping an artist -- Bright Water's most famous son -- with the project of a lifetime. As Truth and Bright Water prepare for the Indian Days festival, their secrets come together in a climax of tragedy, reconciliation, and love.
