Consider other books written by American Indian authors, including Ceremony by Leslie Marmon Silko, Custer Died for Your Sins: an Indian Manifesto by Vine Deloria, Jr., and The Plague of Doves by Louise Erdich.
Consider others books by author Sherman Alexie, including Blasphemy and The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-time Indian.
