How does the author use foreshadowing in Reservation Blues?

Reservation Blues is more than merely a comical story of several young Native Americans who want to start a band. It is also the story of how modern day Native Americans continue to face hardships and the peculiar sense of humor that comes from enduring a tough life. Whether it is facing the high rates of alcoholism on the reservation, the stereotypes and prejudice of non-Native Americans, or trying to survive on substandard government-supplied food, the characters of the novel retain a dark and fatalistic sense of humor.
