The Inconvenient Indian

a Curious Account of Native People in North America
Jan 17, 2020evanbrow rated this title 3 out of 5 stars
Thomas King uses his storytelling talent to add levity to his "curious account of Native People in North America." It is nuanced and engaging, weaving narratives and truths into a work that feels like a very personalized and honest long-form essay. It is purposely not a "history" and hooks a non-fiction reader in with its desperately-trying-not-to-start-with-Christopher-Columbus-but-ultimately-having-to-do-that intro. I admit that I'm not a big non-fiction reader, and my rating definitely reflects that, but this is worth the read. It gave me a much better perspective and I am grateful for that.
