Flight Book Reviews
Flight by Sherman Alexie Book Summary
From the National Book Award–winning author of The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, the tale of a troubled boy’s trip through history.
Half Native American and half Irish, fifteen-year-old “Zits” has spent much of his short life alternately abused and ignored as an orphan and ward of the foster care system. Ever since his mother died, he’s felt alienated from everyone, but, thanks to the alcoholic father whom he’s never met, especially disconnected from other Indians.
After he runs away from his latest foster home, he makes a new friend. Handsome, charismatic, and eloquent, Justice soon persuades Zits to unleash his pain and anger on the uncaring world. But picking up a gun leads Zits on an unexpected time-traveling journey through several violent moments in American history, experiencing life as an FBI agent during the civil rights movement, a mute Indian boy during the Battle of Little Bighorn, a nineteenth-century Indian tracker, and a modern-day airplane pilot. When Zits finally returns to his own body, “he begins to understand what it means to be the hero, the villain and the victim. . . . Mr. Alexie succeeds yet again with his ability to pierce to the heart of matters, leaving this reader with tears in her eyes” (The New York Times Book Review).
Sherman Alexie’s acclaimed novels have turned a spotlight on the unique experiences of modern-day Native Americans, and here, the New York Times–bestselling author of The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven and The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian takes a bold new turn, combining magical realism with his singular humor and insight.
This ebook features an illustrated biography of Sherman Alexie including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.

I like it.. The book is really touching because it shows dedicatedly how a teenager struggles with his identity and the pain he suffered.
Awesome book!. Sherman Alexie is a great author.
Definitely worth the read. Love, love this book. Its full of smart in your face writing that will keep you turning the page. This book is not one you'll put down to read later. Once you start you'll have to finish. Great read. Would greatly recommend. Maybe meant for a high school audience or older since it has violence and rough language. Not for the faint of heart.
Shallow. I was so looking forward to reading this after finishing my first Alexie novel, “The Absolutely True Diary,” which I thought was great. Now that I’ve finished this one, I don’t know if I want to read anything else by Alexie. He goes to a lot of trouble here to develop what is ultimately a rather shallow theme. I felt at times like I was reading a Kurt Vonnegut novel as I worked my way through the flight portion of this book. It reads like a belabored essay of random thoughts fictionalized in a Vonnegut style. I could easily believe that the author stretched out that portion of the book to meet some minimum page requirement because after a while, it really doesn’t say anything different. This one didn’t do it for me. It comes across like the work of an amateur. I’m glad to be done with it.
Great!!!. I felt like I could see and fell different perspectives on life. I Could feel like I was in the minds of the people. I noticed I zoned out a couple time because I was so lost in reading the book.
