Description

Gerald Vizenor sets out to give life to traditional tribal stories by presenting them in a new perspective: he challenges the idyllic perception of rural life, offering in its stead an unusual vision of survival in the cities - the sanctuaries for humans and animals. It is a tribal vision, a quest for liberation from forces that would deny the full realisation of human possibilities. In this modern world his characters insist upon survival through an imaginative affirmation of the self.
