The Woman Who Fell from the Sky
ByPublisher Description
Joy Harjo, one of this country's foremost Native American voices, combines elements of storytelling, prayer, and song, informed by her interest in jazz and by her North American tribal background, in this, her fourth volume of poetry.
She draws from the Native American tradition of praising the land and the spirit, the realities of American culture, and the concept of feminine individuality.Download the free Fable app

“Like the last collection harjo blew my mind. The more I read of her wrote the more I connect with her. Though this collection was absolutely amazing I liked the first one I read more. I do have 5 poems from this collection that I loved the most. They are A Postcolonial Tale, Mourning Song, The Myth of Blackbirds, Wolf Warrior, Perhaps the World Ends Here. I can't wait to read more of her work.”
“Beautiful collection that I enjoyed reading with my daughters. These are stories, prayers, folktales, histories meant for sharing.”
