SYNOPSIS:

Award-winning author Erdrich weaves a vital and dramatic novel of a year in the life of a young Ojibwa girl in the mid-1800's. As each season in the year of Omakayas' life is lovingly portrayed, the satisfying rhythm of her days is shattered with a stranger visits the lodge one night, bringing with him an invisible enemy that will change things forever. Great family listening.
