The Sky Watched

Poems of Ojibwe Lives

Beschreibung

"Reaching from the moment of creation to a newborn's cry, The Sky Watched gives poetic voice to Ojibwe family life. In English and Ojibwe, those assembled here--voices of history, of memory and experience, of children and elders, and the Manidoog, the unseen beings who surround our lives--create a collective memoir in poetry as expansive and particular as the starry sky"--
