精彩摘录
  • "Women don't realize how much store men set on the regularity of their habits. We absorb their comings and goings into our bodies, their rhythms into our bones."

We are trying to build a solid base here for our sovereignty. We try to press against the boundaries of wha"
  • "Any judge knows there are many kinds of justice as opposed to the best-we-can-do justice, which is what we end up with in making so many of our decisions. It was no lynching.

印第安文学,仔细阅读,印第安人和中国人生活方式相似点很多,但研究却是小众方向。
男孩的复仇,向暴徒,以及整个社会对印第安人的不公正
印第安文化是神秘而动人的,印第安人的命运也是与历史博弈的过程。最后一段几个孩子开车去远处,是为了爱情,是一种逃离,也是一种超越,超越保留地的界限,超越政府对他们的约束,也超越白人的偏见。
理想的正义vs尽力的正义
男孩对美国社会歧视印第安人现实的抗争 看到了无忧无虑的小孩子短时间的快速成长
