Antelope Wife

A new and radically revised version of the classic novel the New York Times called "a fiercely imagined tale of love and loss, a story that manages to transform tragedy into comic redemption, sorrow into heroic survival."

When Klaus Shawano abducts Sweetheart Calico and carries her far from her native Montana plains to his Minneapolis home, he cannot begin to imagine what the eventual consequences of his rash act will be. Shawano's mysterious Antelope Woman has stolen his heart--and soon proves to be a bewitching agent of chaos whose effect on others is disturbing and irresistible, as she alters the shape of things around her and the shape of things to come.

In this remarkable revised edition of her acclaimed novel, Louise Erdrich weaves an unforgettable tapestry of ancestry, fate, harrowing tragedy, and redemption that seems at once modern and eternal.

O versiune noua si radical revizuita a romanului clasic, New York Times a numit-o „o poveste cu dragoste imaginata de dragoste si pierdere, o poveste care reuseste sa transforme tragedia in rascumparare comica, intristarea in supravietuire eroica.” Cand Klaus Shawano rapeste Sweetheart Calico si poarta departe de campiile sale natale din Montana pana la casa lui din Minneapolis, el nu poate incepe sa-si imagineze care vor fi eventualele consecinte ale actului sau nepasator.
