Description
This first collection, in prose memoir and poetry, of the work of a Navajo poet and teacher describes attending a government school for Indian children and the challenge it presented to her socially, culturally, and expressively.
Laura Tohe says this of her experience: While growing up I heard stories all around me.
As we drove down the dusty reservation road, my mother told many Din stories.
I liked to listen to her and Grandma gossip.
Sometimes she would catch me eavesdropping and make me leave.
My first publication originates from a story given to my mother by her great-grandmother.
