Review
The novel skillfully intertwines social history, oral myth and charcter study in ways reminiscent of Leslie Marmon Silko and Louise Erdrich. --Publishers Weekly
...LaDuke delivers an assured first novel.... Last Standing Woman is a sweeping indictment of the racism and oppression directed at Native Americans....humor and compassion are ever present, and at its best, Last Standing Woman is a dignified and powerful retelling of one reservation's struggle for survival. - --Booklist
...a lush, lyrical history of seven generations on a reservation. --US News & World Report
