About the Novel:
The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian follows Arnold Spirit Jr. as he balances life within two worlds. Arnold lives on the Spokane Reservation with his family, where everyone calls him Junior. Life on the Reservation is constrained. People don’t leave the Reservation. They live their entire lives there and amount to working at the casino. Junior is different. He is smart and has dreams. He decides to go to high school in a nearby town that will grant him bigger opportunities. There, everyone calls him Arnold. On the Reservation, everyone hates him for abandoning them. He is commonly referred to as a traitor. At his new school, everyone hates him for being different. Junior feels stuck between two worlds, not really belonging to either one of them. As the story unfolds, Junior struggles with being an adolescent, on top of trying to fit in. These struggles eventually lead him to discovering who he is and where he truly belongs.
