It's for someone supposedly 'red on the outside, white on the inside.'In APPLE (SKIN TO THE CORE), Eric Gansworth tells his story, the story of his familyof Onondaga among Tuscarorasof Native folks everywhere. From the horrible legacy of the government boarding schools, to a boy watching his siblings leave and return and leave again, to a young man fighting to be an artist who balances multiple worlds.Eric shatters that slur and reclaims it in verse and prose and imagery that truly lives up to the word heartbreaking.
