The sequel to There There traces the aftermath of the powwow shooting and goes back generations — from the Sand Creek Massacre to Carlisle boarding school to contemporary Oakland. Orange writes about what it means to be Native in America across centuries of attempted erasure.
Clean — historical and personal depth.

Highly recommended — direct sequel.
Different structure — more linear but still multi-POV.
Very — but essential reading.
