More about the book
His shiny Saab and his finely tailored suits make Sylvester Yellow Calf's childhood unimaginable. Abandoned by his parents, he was raised in poverty on th Blackfoot reservation in Montana. Now a prominent lawyer, Sylvester moves between two worlds, feeling slightly out of place in each. In the city, the possibilities of business and political success seem limitless for Sylvester, until the parole board on which he sits denies release to convict Jack Harwood. Bent on freedom, Harwood engineers a cunning scheme that threatens to ensnare Sylvester and destroy his career. The Indian Lawyer is a vivid evocation of the American West and a provocative tale of the paradoxes of assimilation.
