註釋A novel on the resurgence of an Alaskan village and its Indigenous people; striving to find a balance between their traditional values and the Alaskan dominant culture. The old Kaheen tribal leader has found his balance, being comfortable in both worlds, however his young nephew has rejected and lost respect for the old ways. Survival of the Kaheens as a tribe is further imperiled by the violent forces of nature in earthquake-prone Southeast Alaska and a conflict over ownership of Kaheen artifacts and other cultural items. How would you judge the dominant society in the treatment of the Kaheens and their hardiness in surviving in today's world?
