- Synopsis
- Hogan, a poet, novelist, essayist, and author of ten previous books, recounts the development of her American-Indian identity, her difficult childhood as the daughter of an army sergeant, her love affair at the age of 12 with an older man, and the troubled history of the two daughters she adopted. Revealing how historic and emotional pain are passed down through generations, she blends personal history with stories of important Indian figures of the past such as Lozen, the woman who was the military strategist for Geronimo, and Ohiyesha, the medical doctor who witnessed the massacre at Wounded Knee.
