This Is What It Means To Say Phoenix Arizona- Alexie

This story was about a man named Victor whose dad passed away. Throughout the story, he tries to find someone to loan him the money to go back to Phoenix, Arizona. I really enjoy reading Alexie's work. I feel that he has a great sense of humor that shows through his work and he builds character through his fictional characters that he writes about in my opinion. I think that the reservation would be really hard to live in. I think that he expresses these feelings in this story because I was frustrated even reading about him trying to find money to get back to Phoenix to bring his dad who passed away. I liked how I learned a lot about the lifestyle on the reservation and how these people get by with their lives. Although, I felt for these people because I'm sure its a huge struggle to live there and making a living if they even can.
