A Native American man married to a white woman struggles with everyday marriage problems and wonders where he belongs.
(from The Toughest Indian In The World)
Another sometimes-funny, sometimes-sad story of confused people. Edgar Eagle Runner, a lawyer, feels like he lives in a white world. When he makes a brief foray into a Native American bar, it’s disastrous. There are all kinds of awkward symbols in this story, like one really funny thing in the prostitute scene, which add a sort of allegorical feel to the human drama. Fun and uncomfortable.
This story is incredibly and saddly true. I think that no matter what, we can all relate to the main character in relation to everyday troubles.
