Title
From the Hilltop (Native Storiers: A Series of American Narratives),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
For the characters we meet in Toni Jensens stories, the past is very much the present. Theirs are American Indian lives off the reservation, lives lived beyond the usual boundaries set for American Indian characters: migratory, often overlooked, yet carrying tradition with them into a future of difference and possibility.Drawing on American Indian oral traditions and her own Mtis upbringing, Jensen tells stories that mix many lives and voices to offer fleeting perspectives on a world that reconfigures the tragedy and disconnection often found in narratives of American Indian life. A brother falls off the roof of an abandoned hotel, a young bride tries to connect with a family shes never met, and an adopted teenage girl seeks acceptance where she is viewed as an outsider. The reader also encounters a kidnapped nephew, strangers in a hotel, and even a stray dog: these are the souls that populate Jensens stories, finding tentative connections with the past, the future, one another, and finally us.
