Extractions: BROTHER FRANK'S GOSPEL HOUR By W.P. Kinsella HarperCollins, $23 cloth W.P. Kinsella (Shoeless Joe, The Iowa Baseball Confederacy) got into hot water last year when he was accused of appropriation of voice. The Orillia Public Library wanted to remove four of his books that were found to be offensive to native Canadians. It was decided eventually to let the books stay on the shelf. In his new collection of short stories, Kinsella gently and humorously lashes out at the people who have chastised him for writing from the Indian point of view without having the proper genes. "I don't understand why native peoples should have a writing class all their own, and with native teachers, too. To me it implies that native people ain't good enough to mix in with the white students, or else they're too good to mix with them. Either way is a losing situation. Story writing is story writing no matter the color of your skin," says Kinsella's storyteller Silas Ermineskin in "Turbulence," a sweet tale of finding something to live for. There are readers who are bound to get offended by Ermineskin and his friend Frank Fencepost (both of whom we met in The Miss Hobbema Pageant) and their continued adventures on and off their Alberta reserve. The two are not above a little cheating and a little stealing and a little grabbing of female behinds. But, at the same time, Kinsella is presenting us with a group of characters that you immediately know it would be very wonderful to meet. And when someone is conned by Frank Fencepost, you can be sure it's a white man without a clue.

Extractions: Japanese Baseball and Other Stories by W.P. Kinsella Published by Thistledown Press 218 pages, 2000 Baseball Fantastic edited by W.P. Kinsella Published by Quarry Press 271 pages, 2001 Back at the Plate Reviewed by Ron Kaplan It's been some time since W.P. Kinsella has come out with new baseball fiction. The author of such memorable novels as Shoeless Joe, Box Socials and The Iowa Baseball Confederacy and shorter works, The Thrill of the Grass, The Dixon Cornbelt League and Other Baseball Stories, reminds us of his literary connection with the game with two new releases. Japanese Baseball and Other Stories marks the author's return to the baseball quick read. The entries run from wry to melancholy. Many are full of disappointment over opportunities lost, in the game of life as well as on the baseball field. In some instances, baseball seems merely a setting for the theme, which could just have easily taken place elsewhere. In both "Tulips" and "Understanding Lynn Johannsen," the protagonists happen to be young ballplayers; they could just have easily been football players or wrestlers. Similar stories of resignation can be found in "The Arbiter," about an umpire who must decide between his profession and his family; "The Lime Tree," in which two elderly friends confront memories of lost loved ones; and "Wavelengths," another buddy piece which follows two minor league teammates headed in different directions.

Extractions: Comment: Mike Houle is a baseball player who, unaccountably choked in his senior year at LSU and is left undrafted by the major leagues. When his agent calls with a chance to play in semi-pro ball in Iowa, Mike agrees although he's never heard of the team or the league. At least, his agent assures him, the major league scouts will have a chance to see him play. What Houle finds in Grand Mound Iowa comes as a complete surprise to him. Families take in ball playersespecially families with young and attractive daughters. Is that normal? And Grand Mound, according to his sponsor, is one of the few towns in Iowa which is actually growing. The entire town shows up for the regular inter-squad matches held by the local semi-pro team and Houle, the pressure off, finds himself playing the best baseball of his life.

Additional topics may include rural/urban migrations, devaluation of labor, and trade issues. Exploration of the theme year takes place through lectures, classes, and discussions. To complement these programs, we are compiling an annotated Recommended Reading List with books and articles related to this year's theme. Click on an author's name below to find a description of her/his writing. Alexie, Sherman Mills, Nicolaus Cisneros, Sandra Preston, Douglas ... Millman, Joel Alexie, Sherman, Reservation Blues Alexie mixes dark humor, a healthy dose of magic, and engrossing, layered writing to produce his first novel a remarkably powerful story with roots not only in Native American mythology, but also in the equally potent history of rock 'n' roll. Legendary blues guitarist Robert Johnson, who died in 1938, walks onto the Spokane Indian reservation in 1992 and into the lives of Thomas Builds-the-Fire, Victor Joseph, Junior Polatkin and Chess and Checkers Warm Water, who form a rock group called Coyote Springs. The novel depicts the band's swift rise and abject fall as it tours the nation.
