Dystopian Thematic Concepts

to look for in your Lit Circle Novel

Part-Time Indian

Thematic concept: Poverty

Poverty is a major thematic concept in Part-Time Indian. Junior's whole life is affected by the poverty that he and his family live in. It causes him, at times, to be ashamed about where he comes from, and he even lies about his financial status to avoid telling Penelope and others the truth. Throughout the novel we see Junior trying to balance growing up and coming to terms about the reality of his living situation.

Direct Quote: "I wish I were magical, but I am really just a poor-ass reservation kid living with his poor-ass family on the poor-ass Spokane Indian Reservation" (Alexie 7).
