The novel is narrated in the third-person (limited),mode, present tense. There are multiple point-of-view characters in the novel, including Ricky, Gabe, Cassidy, Lewis, Denorah, and the elk spirit. (The novel uses second-person narration when narrating the elk spirit’s perspective.) The novel’s focus on these individual perspectives helps to illuminate the specific challenges common to Native Americans in the modern era.
