When the Native American novel "Chétan" was created, the author had a purpose in mind, to deliver a compelling and unique story to the marketplace... a timeless tale that would flow beyond the realms of today, into the world of tomorrow.
This storytelling was narrated through native eyes to challenge the intelligent mind… to walk in the shoes of another, even if only for a fleeting moment in time. The Shawnee language lifts from turning pages as the songbird’s voice flitting from chapter to chapter, as the honeyeater wiskilo'tha gathers sweet nectar from opening blooms.
‘Do not tell me, open my eyes so I may see’... To read this story is to be drawn into a world of beauty through Native American cultures and traditions... to learn the meaning of honor and respect… to see visions carry from the depth of spirituality.
A message as old as time itself… lessons still to be learned… bounds set between native people, between cultures, between nations, between beliefs and expectations. As woven strands of the spider's web, one thread binds all… to protect that which is sacred to the heart.
The storyteller weaves this intricate web glistening with dewdrops from the rising sun while the haze of Indian Summer lifts to the spirit fires of the creator of all things. It is Mother Earth who sighs with whispering breath carrying her message through the disgruntled rustle of leaves in ti-qui. Will her children ever hear? … Not until rivers of blood soak into the earth, and the whiteness of bones lie in silent graves.
