Synopsis

When thirty-year-old Cecelia Capture Wells, an American Indian law student at Berkeley, is jailed on a drunk driving charge, but held to face another--initially unidentified--charge, she reflects on the course of her life

Review

"Hale draws on her own American Indian heritage to provide the rich detail, authentic dialogue and unfurbished prose that add special drama to a convincing and memorable story."

"�a�. . . poignant, memorable novel . . . a fine piece of writing . . ."

At the end of this novel one is left with a feeling of grim determination that suggests in its very simplicity, a new valuation of life, of going on.

Hale draws on her own American Indian heritage to provide the rich detail, authentic dialogue and unfurbished prose that add special drama to a convincing and memorable story.

"[a]. . . poignant, memorable novel . . . a fine piece of writing . . ."
