Inhaltsangabe
Roofwalker evokes a world in which spirits and the living commingle and Sioux culture and modern life collide with disarming power, humor, and joy. The characters grapple with potent forces of family, history, and belief - forces that at times dare them to do more to feed their identity, and at times simply paralyze them. Rich with women who do things, this book gives voice to characters who make space for contradictions in their lives with varying success and, by extension, live the "Indian way" to varying degrees.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Roofwalker, made up of a unique combination of fiction and nonfiction, or stories and histories, reveals the ways that native traditions and beliefs work in the lives of characters who live far from the reservationand in the author s own life. Many of the histories repeat subjects and themes found in the stories, making Roofwalker a book that in which spirits and the living commingle and Sioux culture and modern life collide with disarming power, humor, and joy. The first seven pieces in the book are stories, fictional accounts primarily of girls and women. In the title story, a young girl believes in the power of the roofwalker spirit to make her dreams come true. In Beaded Souls, a woman is cursed by the sin of her great-grandfather, an Indian policeman who arrested Sitting Bull. First Fruits follows a native girl s first-year at Harvard. The nonfiction pieces include Power s imaginary account of the meeting of her Phi Beta Kappa father and Sioux mother, a piece about the letters of an Irish ancestor and another in which Power and her mother visit the Field Museum in Chicago, where a native ancestor s dress is on display.
