Louise Erdrich's award-winning novels about contemporary Native American life have captivated readers across the nation. This latest novel, now in trade paperback, continues the tetralogy that began with Love Medicine and provides the link between the previous books with the character of Lipsha Morrissey. The Bingo Palace focuses on Lipsha's return to the reservation and his romance with the beautiful Shawnee Ray.
At the crossroads of his life, Lipsha Morrissey is summoned by his grandmother to return to the reservation. There, he falls in love for the very first time—with the beautiful Shawnee Ray, who’s already considering a marriage proposal from Lipsha’s wealthy entrepreneurial boss, Lyman Lamartine. But when all efforts to win Shawnee’s affections go hopelessly awry, Lipsha seeks out his great-grandmother for a magical solution to his romantic dilemma—on sacred ground where a federally sanctioned bingo palace is slated for construction. Louise Erdrich’s luminous novel The Bingo Palace is a tale of spiritual death and reawakening; of money, desperate love, and wild hope; and of the enduring power of cherished dreams.
