Product description...

Experience the Dance

The setting is the high rugged plateau of North Dakota where each summer Sundancers gather to reenact a ceremony that was given to the people of the northern plains so far in the past there are no written records. Dancing With The Sun is a collection of prose poetry and prose adapted from the author’s journals compiled over a twelve year period at the Sun Dance on the Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara Reservation, Fort Berthold, North Dakota. It is about the power of dreams, the attachments of friends, the language of hope and courage, filled with characters who thrill, dismay, and sometimes shock. A magical journey where the solitude of the vision-quest, the purification of the sweat lodge, the hypnotic beat of the drums, and the smoke of burning cedar all come together in a compassionate odyssey of the Dance.
