The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse (exclusive)

by Louise Erdrich

First Edition, First Printing, Hardcover signed by Louise.

For more than a half century, Father Damien Modeste has served his beloved people, the Ojibwe, on the remote reservation of Little No Horse. Now, nearing the end of his life, Father Damien dreads the discovery of his physical identity, for he is a woman who has lived as a man. To complicate his fears, his quiet life changes when a troubled colleague comes to the reservation to investigate the life of the perplexing, difficult, possibly false saint Sister Leopolda. Father Damien alone knows the strange truth of Sister Leopolda's piety and is faced with the most difficult decision of his life: Should he reveal all he knows and risk everything? Or should he manufacture a protective history though he believes Leopolda's wonder-working is motivated by evil?

Loved the book. It kept me thinking about how I look at people and put them into a category based on outward appearance. We are so much deeper than that.

Probably Erdrich's best.

This is my favorite novel. I've read and re-read it many times in the decades since it was published, and treasure my recorded version of it, masterfully performed by Anna Fields.

It's all your fault, Prof. Louise! Because of this book, I went off to seminary and became a priest! (Yes, it's that good)
