A Comparison Between The Way to Rainy Mountain and Love Medicine

In Louis Erdrich's novel "Love Medicine" and N. Scott Momadai's "The Road to the Rain", readers acquired past and present Indians in two different ways of communication. Cultural Perspective The two authors offered a very rich depiction of different literary means to better understand the problems faced by contemporary Native Americans, especially their own self identity. The story of love medicine develops around the central role of June Kashpa and many relationships around her whether it happened before or when she died.

The winter of blood, the medicine of love, and the way to the mountains of rain is not a novel of cultural confrontation. Of course there are conflicts between Indians and non Indians. But the characters are also people responsible for their behavior, and in some cases even their own stupid victims. Erdrich and Momaday both use multiple narrators. It seems that no one has known each other in the past 50 years. This is not an easy battle. The writer must not only overcome the stereotypes of the "noble barbarians of the last century" but also must exceed the current "social mistakes" and "cultural conflicts". He needs to master skills and literary forms other than India while maintaining his native language and vision.
