Book excerpt: "In prose, Dauenhauer presents stories such as "Egg Boat"--The tale of a twelve-year-old girl fishing the North Pacific for the first time alone - and an autobiographical piece that reveals much about Tlingit lifeways. Then in a section of short, lyrical poems she offers crystalline tributes to her land and people." "In a concluding selection of plays, Dauenhauer presents three Raven stories that were adapted as stage plays from oral version told in Tlingit by three storytellers of her community."--Jacket.
