I Heard the Owl Call My Name
Book Description
A place of salmon runs, ancient totems, and a lesson a young vicar
must learn....
Amid the grandeur of the remote Pacific Northwest stands Kingcome,
a village so ancient that, according to Kwakiutl myth, it was founded
by the two brothers left on earth after the great flood. The Native Americans
who still live there call it Quee, a place of such incredible natural
richness that hunting and fishing remain primary food sources. But
the old culture of totems and potlatch is being replaces by
a new culture of prefab housing and alcoholism. Kingcome's younger
generation is disenchanted and alienated from its heritage. And now,
coming upriver is a young vicar, Mark Brian, on a journey of discovery
that can teach him -- and us -- about life, death, and the
transforming power of love.
