Description

A classic of Native American literature| Black Eagle Child uses a rich mix of verse| prose narrative| and letters to tell Edgar Bearchild’s journey to adulthood. Although the backdrop of much of Young Bear’s novel may be familiar ? the conflicts over race| drugs| Vietnam and others that gripped America in the fifties| sixties| and seventies ? Bearchild recounts his coming-of-age story from a distinct vantage point| as a member of the Mesquakie nation. From his childhood delight in Jell-O to his induction into the faith of his elders| Bearchild’s journey is a uniquely American one.
