This thesis examines Louise Erdrich's use of water imagery in her novels, Love Medicine and Tracks. These two novels stand alone, but they are more often than not discussed together. Reading the two novels together allows for a greater understanding of both. Erdrich's use of water imagery illustrates the depth of many of the characters' connection to their culture and ancestry. In Tracks, water represents control over culture, land, and identity. In Love Medicine, which covers a later time period and deals with many of the same families, much control has been lost due to government policies and forced assimilation; in this second novel, Erdrich establishes a dichotomy between characters who are successful in establishing Ojibwe identities and are associated with above-water imagery such as boats and bridges, and those characters who do not successfully understand their Ojibwe identities and are associated with images of drowning and sinking. Erdrich's characters are often mixed-blood Native Americans, or unsure of their parents' identities, and the quest to understand their heritage often occurs on both the familial and cultural level.
