Summary:
A haunting dream that will not relent pulls author Kent Nerburn back into the hidden globe of Local America, where dreams have meaning, animals are teachers, as well as the ‘old ones’ still possess forces beyond our understanding.
Within this moving narrative, we travel through the lands of the Lakota and the Ojibwe, where we encounter a strange little girl with an unnerving connection to the past, a forgotten asylum that history has tried to cover, and the complex, unforgettable characters we have come to learn from Neither Wolf nor Pet and The Wolf at Twilight. Component history, part secret, part spiritual journey and teaching story, THE LADY Who Sang towards the Buffalo can be filled with the deep insight into mankind and Indigenous American culture we’ve come to expect from Nerburn’s journeys. As the American Indian College Fund has stated, once you have encountered Nerburn’s stirring evocations of America’s high plains and incisive insights into the human being heart, ‘you can’t ever look at the globe, or at people, the same manner again.’
