Reservation Restless

Edición de la obra Reservation Restless

"Enter again the complex world of the modern Navajo Nation with Jim Kristofic, author of the highly-acclaimed Navajos Wear Nikes. In this powerful and haunting land, rainbows grow unexpectedly from the sky, mountain lions roam the desert, and summer storms roll over the Colorado River, where Jim works as a river guide in Glen Canyon. As a park ranger, he explores the Ganado valley, traces the paths of the Anasazi, and finds mythic experiences on sacred mountains that explain the pain and loss promised for every person who decides to love. After reconnecting with his Navajo sister and brother, Jim must confront his own nightmares of the Anglo society and the future it has created. When the possible deaths of his mentor and of the American future loom before him, Jim must find some new way to live in the world and strike some restless path that will lead back to ho zho - a beautiful harmony. With compelling, searching honesty, Reservation Restless traces a modern quest for meaning on the Navajo Reservation, across the Colorado Plateau, and into the country of northern New Mexico in the shadow of Taos Mountain. In this restless adventure, Kristofic searches for where the rugged landscape of the Southwest meets the inner path of the heart"--
