Here leading scholars analyze the three critically acclaimed recent novels--\u003ci\u003eThe Plague of Doves\u003c\/i\u003e (2008), \u003ci\u003eThe Round House\u003c\/i\u003e (2012), and \u003ci\u003eLaRose\u003c\/i\u003e (2016)--that make up what has become known as Erdrich's \"justice trilogy.\" Set in small towns and reservations of northern North Dakota, these three interwoven works bring together a vibrant cast of characters whose lives are shaped by history, identity, and community. Individually and collectively, the essays herein illuminate Erdrich's storytelling abilities; the complex relations among crime, punishment, and forgiveness that characterize her work; and the Anishinaabe contexts that underlie her presentation of character, conflict, and community. The volume also includes a reader's guide to each novel, a glossary, and an interview with Erdrich that will aid in readers' navigation of the justice novels. These timely, original, and compelling readings make a valuable contribution to Erdrich scholarship and, subsequently, to the study of Native literature and women's authorship as a whole.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Connie A.
