Via time travel, Charlotte Makee, a 21st century anthropologist, meets an elderly Coast Miwok curer named Sekiak in the hills near Olompali in Marin County, California. Charlotte wishes to learn about Coast Miwok life before their society was disrupted and then destroyed by Catholic priests, Spanish soldiers, settlers, and other foreigners over less than 100 years. Once Sekiak decides to work with Charlotte, she administers a potion that renders her visitor invisible to all but Sekiak and one or two others. That potion also allows Charlotte to comprehend Miwok speech, and she embarks on ethnographic fieldwork, listening and observing in the nearby settlements with Sekiak as her primary teacher of local customs and history. As the two women move back and forth through time, Charlotte fills dozens of notebooks with data about Coast Miwok life that she intends to draw upon to tell the story of what happened to the people of Coyote’s Land. But as Margery Wolf’s “novel ethnography” unfolds, an ominous air settles over the research enterprise, comparable to the ominous air of death and devastation that demolish a once-thriving society. This experimental ethnography joins fiction to historical and cultural data, helping us to feel and see what happened as the Coast Miwok world turned upside down and then was altered beyond recognition.

Power is understood to be manifested in a multiplicity of ways: through cosmology, economic control, and formal hierarchy. In the Native societies examined, power is continually created and redefined through individual life stages and through the history of the society. The important issue is autonomy - whether, or to what extent, individuals are autonomous in living their lives. Each author demonstrates that women in a particular cultural area of aboriginal North America had (and have) more power than many previous observers have claimed.

Coyote is not the most reliable character in the galaxy, but when Lady Nature commissions him for a job, he takes it for the promised reward. There are, however, contrary personages whom desire to have their own schemes and story-lines prevail. Whether to stay a free agent or enlist in a group becomes of paramount importance as the struggles intensify. Characters want their own versions of stories with their own images, yet for that to occur, they must be an individual, which can be a dangerous thing in battling societies of divisive factions. Coyote's Song: Part One is written in pentameter rhyming couplets. Millennium and Other Stories explores how family life has changed in America, with new figures rising daily as role models to adopt humans as wayward children whom require eternal vigilance. The scripts supplied to people are vapid renditions of mass-produced corporate art. The only uniqueness is an unoriginal sin of art-theft; the good and bad is decided by bottom-line profit. The revised collection of nine stories contains a variety of genres and how characters are inspired by sundry authors, be it Ganesha or Raymond Chandler, in different systems on collision courses.

This volume brings together twenty-one traditional tales recently retold by Hopi narrators. Complete with English translations and original Hopi transcriptions on facing pages and a bilingual glossary. Hopi Coyote Tales is important to an understanding of the Hopi language and folklore. To nomadic hunters such as the Navajo, who competed with him on the open range, Coyote was by turns a formidable trickster, a demonic witchperson, and a god. As sedentary planters, the Hopis tended to reduce Coyote to the level of a laughable fool. In these tales Coyote is a friendly bumbler whose mistakes teach listeners what tricks to avoid. Time after time he is hurt or killed for failing to understand a situation correctly. The collection is as amusing as animal fables should be, as simply told, and as instructive. Published as a companion volume to Father Berard Haile's Navajo Coyote Tales, Hopi Coyote Tales is a valuable contribution to cross-cultural studies.

Coyote's Song: Part Two concludes the tale of the rising, young Coyote and the changes for the former Coyote as the latter becomes an incarnation of Vishnu. Though Coyote is not to be totally trusted, various figures of power, considered good or evil, try to recruit him to further their causes, whether hunting for enlightenment or for sport. Some characters take comfort in philosophy, others in self-imagery, as if it seems the whole world is preoccupied with looking at itself. Where does the inner-god end and ego-driven narcissism begin? Perhaps it is only a prank by the Heavens and gravity arranging stars and planets to effect and reflect our lives until Coyote rearranges the stories of the universe. Coyote's Song is written in pentameter rhyming couplets.
