"We all came to the powwow for different reasons. The messy, dangling threads of our lives got pulled into a braid--tied to the back of everything we'd been doing all along to get us here. There will be death and playing dead, there will be screams and unbearable silences, forever-silences, and a kind of time-travel, at the moment the gunshots start, when we look around and see ourselves as we are, in our regalia, and something in our blood will recoil then boil hot enough to burn through time and place and memory. We'll go back to where we came from, when we were people running from bullets at the end of that old world. The tragedy of it all will be unspeakable, that we've been fighting for decades to be recognized as a present-tense people, modern and relevant, only to die in the grass wearing feathers."
Jacquie Red Feather is newly sober and trying to make it back to the family she left behind in shame in Oakland. Dene Oxendene is pulling his life together after his uncle's death and has come to work the powwow and to honor his uncle's memory. Edwin Black has come to find his true father. Thomas Frank has come to drum the Grand Entry. Opal Viola Victoria Bear Shield has come to watch her nephew Orvil Red Feather; Orvil has taught himself Indian dance through YouTube videos, and he has come to the Big Oakland Powwow to dance in public for the very first time. Tony Loneman is a young Native American boy whose future seems destined to be as bleak as his past, and he has come to the Powwow with darker intentions--intentions that will destroy the lives of everyone in his path.

一有时间就看，坐车等车睡前看，四天看完了。Tommy的文字运用能力真的很好啊！Dene记录下了这些不同人物的故事，叙述手法不一样才会有人称变化，就好像你拍电影都有不同手法叙述分段故事。人物也没那么多，手边突然想起的例子就是原来有个爆米花电影好像叫全城热恋，也是不同手...

用戶評價
It's one of those books where everyone's life comes together in some Babel (the movie)-esque way 喪的很真實 文字有些平鋪直敘但是真情實感 不過還是有些難共情 所以總是拿起又放下
评分我很意外這本書能讓我讀的放不下來，有點點縫隙時間都會拿起來kindle看幾行，但是我不知道是不是本適閤被推薦的書。整本書真的是真實的可怕。非常hit home，但是我覺得如果對native American文化沒有近距離的瞭解過的話可能會很難産生共情。難能可貴的這個題材的好書。
评分“What are we?” 悲劇重演，命中命中。
评分《那裏，那裏》 聽書 沒有很認真
评分So poetically hopeless and depressing. "Being Indigenous has never been about returning to the land. The land is everywhere and nowhere." Wherever you are, there is Indigenous country. All of it. Turtle Island.
