The Girl Who Sang to the Buffalo: A Child, an Elder, and the Light from an Ancient Sky Audiobook (Free)
Summary:
A haunting dream that won’t relent pulls author Kent Nerburn back to the hidden globe of Local America, where dreams have meaning, animals are teachers, and the ‘old ones’ still have powers beyond our understanding.
Within this moving narrative, we travel through the lands of the Lakota as well as the Ojibwe, where we encounter a strange litttle lady with an unnerving link with days gone by, a forgotten asylum that history has tried to cover, and the organic, unforgettable characters we have come to know from Neither Wolf nor Pup and The Wolf at Twilight. Component history, part mystery, part spiritual journey and teaching tale, The Girl Who Sang to the Buffalo is definitely filled up with the deep insight into mankind and Indigenous American culture we have come to expect from Nerburn’s journeys. As the American Indian University Fund has stated, once you’ve encountered Nerburn’s stirring evocations of America’s high plains and incisive insights into the individual heart, ‘you can’t ever go through the world, or at people, the same way again.’
