Indians on Vacation

Thomas King

Multi-award winning author and inaugural Massey Lectures speaker Thomas King introduces readers to Bird and Mimi in Indians on Vacation, a brilliant, poignant new novel on personal and political histories. Inspired by postcards sent by their Uncle Leroy nearly a hundred years earlier, the couple attempt to trace Leroy and the family medicine bundle he took with him to Europe. Witty, sly and powerful, this tale follows one couple’s wanderings through Europe’s famous capitals to reveal a complicated past, present and future.
