content: Love Medicine is an eloquently written story which helps us understand life on a reservation and, more importantly, that it is love that keeps the family together. It is very helpful that the novel is written in a way as to let the reader examine and relate to each character on a individual basis. Although the characters are presented individually, all of the stories intertwine allowing the audience to experience the families on a personal level. Although the book moves slowly in certain areas, overall it is an emotionally interesting book.
