For decades now, Stephen Graham Jones has stormed through the literary landscape, up-ending the genres of fiction and horror by infusing his stories with dramatic surrealism and a focus on Indigenous culture and history.
Jones continues with this hybrid vein in his latest novel,
The Only Good Indians – a modern horror story set on the Blackfeet reservation.
Haunted with regret over a tragic event in the past, four Blackfeet Natives find themselves hunted by a ghost seeking merciless vengeance.
Layered with poignant social commentary on the complexity of modern Indigenous culture and identity,
The Only Good Indians doesn’t confine itself strictly to horror, but also includes a refreshing balance of humor and heart, building up to an incredibly emotional conclusion.
The Only Good Indians is one of 2020’s most unique and stunning novels, and Jones continues to be one of the most inventive writers around today.
