In her fifth book, Joy Harjo, one of our foremost Native American voices, melds memories, dream visions, myths, and stories from America's brutal history into a poetic whole.

This breathtakingly honest collection of writings is alive with deeply felt and beautifully expressed emotions. (Wilma Mankiller)

I turn and return to Harjo's poetry for her breathtaking, complex witness and for her world-remaking language: precise, unsentimental, miraculous. (Adrienne Rich)
