About

A fearless novel about a lost boy in search of his identity-who happens to be a time-traveling mass murderer Flight, the third novel by National Book Award winner Sherman Alexie, is both shattering and full of laughter. The story of Zits, an orphaned Indian boy, resonates profoundly in a country scarred by violence. Alexie works his trademark magic to turn Zits's experiences into a fable about identity, race, and American history. In a gutsy, challenging book that the Village Voice called "fierce and defiant, manic and irreverent," a literary icon gives us a blast of unforgettable tragicomedy.  This ebook features an illustrated biography including rare photos from the author's personal collection.
