So you think Native American stories are all hymns of devotion to Mother Earth? Well, you don’t know Wolverine, the Labrador Innu trickster figure.
He makes the comic book superhero seem like little more than a two bit punk. When Wolverine is on the scene, weird things can and do happen — birch trees have eyes, a pile of shit can talk, and farts can literally kill. Recommended not just to devotees of Native American culture, but also to readers in search of a chuckle if not a rip-roaring laugh.
