Momaday reflects on his native ground and its influence on his people.
What The Reviewers Say
... a collection of short essays as multilayered and majestic as the landscape that has been present in everything that Momaday has written.
... a profound reflection on humanity’s relationship with its terrestrial home, the planet Earth. In this 'spiritual autobiography,' Momaday addresses his intimate, evolving relationship with the land in quick vignettes composed of disarmingly short paragraphs that depict moments big and small.
Momaday distills age-old wisdom from the elders who came before him into a concise book featuring chapters no more than a paragraph in length.
... short but satisfying.
