As they experience all of the joys and uncertainties of first love, the couple must face a changing way of life and its tragic consequences.'A seminal book... Most of us read Laughing Boy when we were young and were awakened to the splendor of a new material for the American novel.'- Jim Harrison, author of Legends of the Fall'A daring experiment, triumphantly successful... The tale is haunting and poetic in an extraordinary degree.’- Owen Wister, author of The Virginian'Compelling in its strength and simplicity, and in its fidelity to the deepest impulses of human nature.'- NEW YORK TIMESOliver La Farge (1901-1963) first traveled to Navajo territory on a Harvard archaeological expedition.
