Sobre este artículo
HarperCollins Publishers, 1979. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good . 6x2x12. Some light chipping and edgewear to dustjacket. Half white and half Indian, Jim Loney slowly drifts from isolation and despair toward ruin in a small Montana town, haunted by memories of his mad mother and rejected by his alcoholic father. James Phillip Welch Jr. (1940 - 2003), who grew up within the Blackfeet and A'aninin cultures of his parents, was a Native American novelist and poet, considered a founding author of the Native American Renaissance. His novel Fools Crow (1986) received several national literary awards, and his debut novel Winter in the Blood (1974) was adapted as a film by the same name, released in 2013. In 1997 Welch received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Native Writers' Circle of the Americas.
Sinopsis
James Welch never shied away from depicting the lives of Native Americans damned by destiny and temperament to the margins of society. The Death of Jim Loney is no exception. Jim Loney is a mixed-blood, of white and Indian parentage. Estranged from both communities, he lives a solitary, brooding existence in a small Montana town. His nights are filled with disturbing dreams that haunt his waking hours. Rhea, his lover, cannot console him; Kate, his sister, cannot penetrate his world. In sparse, moving prose, Welch has crafted a riveting tale of disenfranchisement and self-destruction.
