"Two reservation Indians get drunk, break into the Indian Museum, steal old-time costumes, weapons . . . and set off to hunt down a buffalo.

The result is a kind of spiritual experience...Ude's character development is as leisurely and effortless as his pacing of the story... Becoming Coyote is recommended reading."--American Book Review…mehr
