Conflict Resolution for Holy Beings Harjo Joy
In these poems, the joys and struggles of the everyday are played against the grinding politics of being human. Stomp dance songs, blues, and jazz ballads echo throughout. Beginning in a hotel room in the dark of a distant city, we travel through history and follow the memory of the Trail of Tears from the bend in the Tallapoosa River to a place near the Arkansas River.
Resilient songs are born, even as they grieve the loss of their country. Lost ancestors are recalled. Called a "magician and a master" (San Francisco Chronicle), Joy Harjo is at the top of her form in Conflict Resolution for Holy Beings.Finalist for the Griffin Poetry
