The Song of Hiawatha | 
Great topic! Difficult to choose only 3! Though not necessarily iconic, Cork O‘Connor (protégée of old Anishinabbe Henry Meloux) typifies human justice through his bravery and tenacity. Hiawatha is a tragic hero, and though some may define Longfellow‘s characters as caricaturistic, other strong themes balance it out. The last is Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of Sûreté du Québec, in Louise Penny‘s series-humble and selfless w. strong convictions.
Eggs P.S. I grew up in a town world-famous for its national monument, peace pipes, Pipestone art/jewelry, quarries that are still used by tribes today, and an annual outdoor theatre presentation of Hiawatha. I was in it as an “extra” as a child-so exciting. #TLT @dabbe (edited) 2mo

dabbe It's been forever since I read “The Song of Hiawatha“! I must revisit. Never read books with Cork OConnor; on the TBR. LOVE Inspector Gamache! Thanks for sharing. 💚💙💚 2mo
