Abstract
The Round House (2012) by Louise Erdrich discusses identity, trauma, and the complex issues that Native American tribes face in the justice system. Erdrich offers a distinctive viewpoint that blends personal and social histories by drawing on her Ojibwe ancestry. Systemic injustices in the American legal system and violence against Native women are among the important subjects discussed in the book. in order to demonstrate how Joe and his mother Geraldine's experiences mirror the larger problems encountered by Indigenous peoples in the US, this study analyses The Round House using the framework of post-traumatic stress disorder theory.
