DESCRIPTION - Nineteen stories that reflect the preoccupations of young Native Americans today. From the title story by Leslie Silko (a 25-year-old Laguna Pueblo), which is a beautifully understated celebration of the death of a beloved Indian grandfather, to 'Kaiser and the War: ' by Simon J. Ortiz (an Acoma Pueblo), in which a 'crazy' Indian brave goes to jail rather than serve in the U.S. Army, the stories in this volume all convey the conflict between the Indian heritage, 'the insistent drums of tradition: ' and the Indian's inferior status in American society today. 'The subject matter ranges from murder described with icy detachment to an entanglement of nephew, uncle, and goat, where the comedy is slap-stick and the sentiment delicate as a soap bubbles' - Atlantic Monthly Press. inventory #3800.
