Black and white illustrations through the book." “The stories in The Way to Rainy Mountain are told in three voices. The first voice is the voice of my father, the ancestral voice, and the voice of the Kiowa oral tradition. The second is the voice of historical commentary. And the third is that of personal reminiscence, my own voice. There is a turning and returning of myth, history, and memoir throughout, a narrative wheel that is as sacred as language itself"; Black & white illustrations; 6.9 X 4.2 X 0.1 inches .
Sinopsis
The Way to Rainy Mountain (1969) is a book by Pulitzer Prize winning author N. Scott Momaday.
