	DIONYSIAN IMAGERY IN ALERAMO’S MOMENTI
		Moreover, Indiana and Noun are separated racially, socially, and sexually: Indiana is the daughter of a white colonizer, now married to the bourgeois industrialist Delmare; Noun, her chamber-maid, is a fl Creole from the island of Bourbon.
		In fact, Indiana’s experience in the text is likened to that of the slaves with whom she spent most of her childhood (“vivant au milieu des esclaves,” 89; “cette femme esclave,” 90).
		However, the novel’s concluding section in the island of Bourbon is ultimately life-affirming: Indiana and Ralph have triumphed over the death instinct to lead a new, utopian existence in the colonies, outside the bounds of the French bourgeois universe.

	Our Land, Our Literature: Literature - Dwight Le Roy Armstrong
		In Plymouth, Indiana, on May 13, 1854, Dwight Le Roy Armstrong was born to Augustus and Ara Armstrong.
		In this adventurous romance novel, Armstrong focuses on politics and the destruction of nature, with emphasis on topics such as urban sprawl and agriculture.
		During his years in Indiana, Armstrong contributed to the state's environment by writing about the destruction of the land, which invokes in the reader a sense of remorse for the damage to nature.

		Indiana, the wife of the prototypical colonialist, Colonel Delmare, is described as a "créole" in what would seem to be the sense of a white colonial ("Le blanc mat de son collier, celui de sa robe de crêpe et de ses épaules nues, se confondaient à quelque distance," p.
		Not only does this revelation suggest that Indiana's "soeur de lait," her servant Noun, may have been the daughter of the wet-nurse and thus fl or of mixed race, but it also stresses that Indiana was nurtured with the non-white, racially "other" milk of her wet-nurse and thus is herself partially non-white too.
		The resisting side of Indiana is also apparent in the many passages in the novel in which Indiana herself voices resistance to the analogous oppression imposed on women and slaves, passages that make the point that fls, whites, and persons of color do indeed share the common identity that definitions of the adjective "créole" acknowledge.

	Willamette Week \| BiblioFile
		While in the preface Indiana is quick to distance himself from both the Truman Capote school of nonfiction and the Ann Rule school of true crime ("Three Month Fever is a pastiche with which I would like to dissolve both of these unsatisfying modes"), it's apparent that both of these genres feed his style.
		Indiana's analysis is compelling, but it doesn't have the strength to carry through once the murders start.
		Indiana's point is strong--the murders are not as important as the life leading up to them.

	Tucson Weekly: Moving Violation (October 23 - October 29, 1997)
		Compellingly, though perhaps somewhat to the novel's detriment, Indiana seems to suggest that the inability to reason morally is a function of the loss of coherent, meaningful moral narratives.
		Perhaps the clearest expression of Indiana's position, though, comes near the end of the first part of the novel, as Seth and his friends attend a crucifixion staged by a well-known performance artist.
		But as the novel wears on, and the events of the Martinez trial become increasingly unadorned by narrative-aside in service to Indiana's sociological objective, the novel itself becomes increasingly fragmented and, by the end, all too prosaic.

	Indiana native O'Dell has a 'novel' experience - PittsburghLIVE.com
		O'Dell wrote five novels in 11 years before a publishing company finally expressed interest in a story of a 19-year-old boy and his struggling relationship with his family after his mother is jailed for shooting his abusive father.
		Back Roads was the first novel where she put that theory to the test, calling upon her roots and her memories, and that, she discovered, opened a gold mine.
		Her first two novels were written from a male's perspective, so this will be her first attempt from the perspective of a female.

	Amazon.com: Indiana: Books: George Sand (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Indiana is the first of many novels written by George Sand, a woman whose behavior was often considered more shocking than her writing.
		Seen as a denouncement of marriage when it was published, the novel is the story of a naive, love-starved woman abused by her much older husband and deceived by a selfish seducer.
		Indiana is a young bride to an old man who selfishly married her because he wanted someone to take care of him in his old age.

	Indiana, Indiana - Laird Hunt
		The novel in general could stand for more risk taking; all it requires is some narrative confidence and a love of language.
		This second novel (after The Impossibly) from Hunt, a former press officer for the UN, is a composite of impressionistic vignettes, the rambling reminiscences of an old man, and letters written by a madwoman-the sum of which challenge the reader to piece together its narrative.
		Indiana, Indiana is a subtle, elegant and haunting novel.

	Books: Keyed Up (The Boston Phoenix . 04-06-98)
		Both Indiana and Dunne have raised the formerly inconsequential roman à clef to a higher level: Indiana, by forcing the satirical form to satirize itself; Dunne, by leaving almost nothing to the imagination.
		Novels no longer seem to have the oomph, or the readership, to perform that task, but the experimental roman à clef can perpetuate this function, by commenting on itself at the same time as it comments on events.
		Gary Indiana is the movement's Diogenes, seeking an honest reality at the end of a century whose devotion to fame has imprisoned everyone behind doors of surreal perception.

		To be fair, novels on the AIDS epidemic, necessarily, are tricky creatures.
		The impact of the disease has been as complex as finding a cure, and to capture somehow these complexities with words must be one of the most formidable tasks available to the contemorary literati.
		And, like finding a cure, the writing of the AIDS novel, or novels, will be marked by marry wrong turns, trial, error, frustrations, advances, despair and hope.

	Amazon.com: Indiana (Oxford World's Classics): Books: George Sand,Naomi Schor,Sylvia Raphael (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The first novel that George Sand wrote without a collaborator, Indiana is not only a romance but also a powerful plea for change in the inequitable French marriage laws of the time, for better education for women, and for a new attitude to their position in society.
		George Sand's Indiana dramatizes and explores a wide variety of concerns in the nineteenth century with a brilliance one rarely finds in a first novel: Arranged marriages, what it means to be a Creole, colonialism and plantation profiteering, slavery, the beginnings of the deterioration of Old Europe, and the rise of the businessman.
		Sand's titular heroine, whose unusual name refers not to Hoosier enthusiasm but to her birthplace of a French colonial island in the Indian Ocean, is the nineteen-year-old wife of the wealthy industrialist Colonel Delmare, a crusty, callous retired soldier old enough to be her father, who has a nice country house in Brie.

		Although she remained away from Indiana most of her life, she reminisced about the land she knew when she grew up in Indianapolis.

		The novels written by Wolfgang Hohlbein are more extensive as the translations of US novels, which are mostly printed in a bigger font (compare 10 with 12-14), to get a thicker book.
		On his novel "Cyborg" the TV series "The Six-Million-Dollar-Man" was shot, but his Indy adventures are not very realistic and not so mythic like those of the other authors.

		Gary Indiana's newest autopsy of America's walking dead examines the tragicomic fate of la vie boheme when its cherished delusions and brightest hopes succumb to the harsh realities of the aging process.
		But it is also a chilling chronicle of madness and failure, disappointments and ruined ambitions, disastrous life choices and the many ways love dies in a world people find increasingly impossible to live in.
		The novel follows several couples and solitary wanderers through the summer of 2001, as their internationally scattered vacations throw long-festering, glossed-over incompatibilities and resentments into exotic and unbearable relief.

		Based on the Erik and Lyle Menendez murder trial, Indiana's 1997 novel "Resentment" was peopled with greedy lawyers and sleazy reporters whose real identities the media had a field day guessing.
		Like Truman Capote, Indiana is a practiced stylist, roaring straight into our first encounters with his grifter "with her white mink turban and the zirconium replica of the Hope Diamond pinned to it" with all the conviction of a truth-teller.
		Indiana takes palpable, relentless delight in probing the grotesqueries that make his characters complex and, ironically, real.

	Third and Indiana
		It's not Great Literature, but it has the gritty authenticity of a world observed by a professional observer, as Lopez, a journalist, is. It has something more than moral outrage over drug-dealing teenagers and neighborhoods forfeit to maniacal gangsters and children murdered; moral outrage, after all, is a buck a bushel.
		The novel has convincing characters who have inner lives, thoughts, habits of mind, superstitions, quirks, unresolved wishes, complicated guilts.
		If Third and Indiana was going to become anything other than the novel it is, it should have been a movie, not a play that proceeds by fits and starts, interrupted over and over by scene changes and intermissions, by entrances and exits.
