Synopsis
A personal memoir of Linda Hogan's family and the way in which tribal history is handed down in modern America. The Chickasaw poet and novelist starts at her difficult childhood as an army daughter, an "illegal" teenaged love affair, alcoholism, and trickling down of emotional pain through generations. There is much pain, but also love in this highly poetic book. "Our healing, we both knew, was connected to this other healing, as woman to land, as bird to water. We are together in this, all of us, and it's our job to love each other, human, animal, and land, the way ocean loves shore, and shore loves ocean and needs the ocean, even if they are of different elements."
