Voda teče, trava se zeleni

Voda teče, trava se zeleni

Thomas King

In this wondrous and haunting story by a Cherokee writer, strong brash women and ill-fated stubborn men perform a complex dance of approach and avoidance in search of a middle ground between Native American tradition and the modern world.

Alberta is a university professor who would like to replace her two lovers with an adieu without a husband; Lionel is a forty-year-old still selling televisions for his demanding boss; Eli and his field house get in the way of a profitable dam construction project. These three - and the others - come to the Blackfoot reservation for the Sun Dance and meet four old Indians and their friend, the trickster Coyote - and nothing will be the same in the small town of Blossom.
