Flight: A Novel by Sherman Alexie

In poet and writer Sherman Alexie's Flight, we're transported into the mind and time-bending misadventures of Zits, a troubled Native American teenager. You may recall the film Smoke Signals; Alexie's screenplay won a Sundance Film Festival award. Here, Alexie's prose narrative moves into raw poetic vengeance as we follow Zits' journey to self identity and self determination. Chapman's First-Year Program is reading this summer, too. Note: contains graphic violence and language; adult situations
