Seller's Description:
New York. 1995. August 1995. Knopf. 1st Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0679421432. 343 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Ingsu Liu. keywords: Navajo Women American Indian. FROM THE PUBLISHER-In this compelling account of a remarkable woman and her struggle to find her place in the world, we follow Ella Bedonie from her childhood tending sheep in the high desert canyons of the Navajo Indian reservation and sleeping on hogan floors to the long, frightening bus ride to boarding school, and on into the white world and a college degree. We meet her grandparents and her parents, who plant corn and worship their gods much as their own grandparents did. We meet her husband and her children, whose lives straddle two worlds-ancient and modern, sacred and profane. As their stories unfold, we come to appreciate the Navajo society into which Ella was born-still in the 1950s an almost nineteenth-century world of visions and spirits, a world ordered by the unambiguous demands of religious tradition and ritual. We see that now, because of the genius of the Navajo culture for incorporating change, it is a world in which the established has made room for the new while at the same time maintaining its unique bond with the past. The moving account of an Indian woman and her family as she moves from the traditional life of the Navajo reservation into the white world. Ella Bedonie points the way toward comprehending both the difficulties her children will face as they increasingly inhabit the white world, and the many strengths they have to offer that world. inventory #21580.
