"In her fifth book, Joy Harjo, one of our foremost Native American voices, melds memories, dream visions, myths, and stories from America's brutal history into a poetic whole. As her fierce conscience lays bare the strange, scarred topography at the margins of our collective consciousness, Harjo's visionary lyricism offers the hope of redemption.". "Muscogee tribal song and storytelling, Navajo and Hawaiian philosophies, the music of the Middle East, and the poetry of western civilizations can all be heard in these songs and stories that bear witness to the cruelties and the miracles of human nature at the border between two centuries."--BOOK JACKET.
