Bestselling author Sherman Alexie tells the story of Junior, a budding cartoonist growing up on the Spokane Indian Reservation. Determined to take his future into his own hands, Junior leaves his troubled school to attend an all-white farm town high school where the only other Indian is the school mascot.

Heartbreaking, funny, and beautifully written. The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian is based on the author's own experiences. It tells the story of one Native American boy as he attempts to break away from the life he was destined to live.

The Spokan or Spokane people are a Native American Plateau tribe who have inhabited the eastern part of present-day Washington state and parts of northern Idaho in the United States of America.

The current Spokane Indian Reservation is located in northeastern Washington, centered at Wellpinit (Sčecuwe).
