An epic short story collection"Storytelling is an art form I learned from my Mother and my Grandmother, both who were very well renowned storytellers amongst California Indians. There are 3 sub-sections to the book - short stories, poetry, and critical essays. Each of thesections, while in different narrative formats, are all part of the same story - told 3 different ways. It is my introspection - my attempt at an explanation to the shifting dynamics of Neo-colonialism. It is my story of living Indian, trapped bythe cascading harshness of Western Modernity" - Dr T.
