Overcome by his curious academic and sexual inadequacies, professional graduate
student Jeremy Sadness lights out from his cramped office at New York State
University for the wilds of the Canadian northwest. He inadvertently exchanges
suitcases—and identities—with Roger Dorck and becomes hopelessly embroiled
in the comic Bacchanalia of the Notikeewin winter festival. This satire of
the "quest novel" is one of the most hilarious works in Canadian literature.
Reviews
"Gone Indian represents Kroetsch's most sustained balancing act."
