There are two writers of fiction who give good pictures of modern Native American life. One is Sherman Alexie; "Reservation Blues" and "The Business of Fancydancing" are set on a reservation near Spokane. Louise Erdrich writes a lot about Indians in northern Minnesota; "Bingo Palace" is a good example.
These are some current books that give good examples of what life is like for Native Americans today :
1 First Americans by K.Martin
2 Native American History Archieve by the institute for learning technologies of Teachers college,Columbia University.
