Description

In prose poetry and alternating voices, Marlene Carvell weaves a heartbreakingly beautiful story in line with the true-life experiences of Native American children. Mattie and Sarah are two Mohawk sisters who’re sent to an off-reservation school after the death in their mother. Subject to intimidation and corporal punishment, with little hope of contact with their father, the ladies are taught menial tasks to arrange them for life as domestics. How Mattie and Sarah give protection to their culture, memories in their circle of relatives life, and their love for each and every other makes for an impressive, unforgettable historical novel.
