THE TITLE - The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian

THE TITLE

  • What do you think about the title? 
    • Absolutely true – is it?  If someone says “absolutely true,” one wonders…
    • True diary – is it?  Fiction, so it’s not a true diary
    • Part-time – how can one be a part-time Indian? 
      • Biracial
      • Not wanting to be completely Indian?  Or completely white?

  • Do you think we will be able to trust that everything he says will be absolutely true?  Why or why not?
  •   Do you think people label you with a stereotype?  What is unfair about the stereotype?
