Another teenage boy, concerned that he's not a real warrior, seeks confirmation behind the liquor store from Grandma Spider, a wise, obese old creature with the torso of an elderly woman and the eight legs of a spider. In stories and poems mixing magical realism with unflinching reality, a young American Indian author offers a raw, graphic view of life on a reservation, a place where bitterness toward the white man lingers, where the enemy often appears in liquid form, where misogyny often raises its ugly head, and where a new generation's pop culture infiltrates ancient beliefs. A standout voice in the anthology \u003ci\u003eNight Gone, Day is Still Coming\u003c\/i\u003e, Thomas M. Yeahpau explores the place between native culture and contemporary America where X-Indians dwell.","brand":"Candlewick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43362906833151,"sku":"9780763627065","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780763627065_s600x595.jpg?v=1782147925","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780763627065","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
