Inhaltsangabe
Ralph Salisbury's stories are engaging and unique. He has a distinctive approach to assembling the elements of a narrative. The "facts" might be revealed directly, but they are more likely to emerge in small fragments of illumination, like pieces of a dream.
The men Salisbury describes have been to war, and being "home"—in the States—is sometimes disorienting for them. Most of them think that they need a woman to help them get their bearings. High school football star Cyrus Littlehorse Jones dreams of slipping silky lingerie off the pale white bodies of high school cheerleaders. A Korean War veteran joins a Vietnam War protest so that he can score with a "hippie chick."
Salisbury taps primal emotions—love, passion, anger—but he explores his subjects in unusual ways, like drillers who bore at odd angles to discover pools of oil trapped deep in layers of rock. He excavates the hearts and minds of his characters, mining them to fuel his stories. And his stories are the richer for it—invariably compelling and continually surprising.

Paperback. Zustand: New. The Indian Who Bombed Berlin and Other Stories is a powerful collection of interconnected stories that follows Native men shaped by war, displacement, and the enduring search for belonging. Moving from childhood to military service to an uneasy return, Ralph Salisbury traces how racism, nationalism, and violence leave lasting marks on individual lives.Written in a lyric, fragmentary style, the stories reveal meaning gradually, through memory and moral reckoning rather than linear narrative. Salisbury's characters-many of them Native soldiers who fought for a country that marginalizes them-grapple with anger, tenderness, and the challenge of self-understanding in the aftermath of war.The haunting title story centers on a Native American academic in Germany confronting the weight of his wartime actions, a reckoning that echoes across the collection. With poetic precision and emotional clarity, The Indian Who Bombed Berlinand Other Stories offers a deeply human exploration of identity, responsibility, and survival, making it a significant contribution to American Indian literature and war fiction.
