Here finally, after twenty-two years of gathering dust, is the complete version of the groundbreaking bestseller.

In this, her best-loved work, Anne Cameron has created a timeless retelling of northwest coast Native myths that together create a sublime image of the social and spiritual power of woman. Cameron weaves together the lives of legendary and imaginary characters, creating a work of fiction with an intensity of style matched by the power of its subject.]]> 368129 4.23 133 14 1984 866566 0933216246 9780933216242 1 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179024813m/866566.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1179024813s/866566.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/866566.The_Journey 4.00 6 368129 4.23 133 14 1982 1717830 0933216289 9780933216280 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1717830.Child_of_Her_People 4.00 5 368129 4.23 133 14 1987 1374174 0006479588 9780006479581 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1183070384m/1374174.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1183070384s/1374174.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1374174.Wedding_Cakes_Rats_and_Rodeo_Queens 3.80 5 368129 4.23 133 14 1998 2532320 0920080898 9780920080894 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2532320.Dzelarhons_Mythology_of_the_Northwest_Coast 3.75 4 The world is full of magic.
It's everywhere ...

"When I was eight or nine - or maybe ten or eleven - I don't remember for sure now, Klopinum would share her stories with me."

And thus it begins, the long-awaited successor to Anne Cameron's ground-breaking Daughters of Copper Woman. Magic in many incarnations - mischievous, terrifying, benevolent, erotic-suffuses the pages of this extraordinary collection, from the humourous tales of the trickster Raven through the feminist fable of the bearded woman to the myth of the lazy boy who was reared by whales and saved the world, climaxing with the epic story of the mythical superwoman Dzelarhons - First Mother, Frog Mother, Weeping Woman, guardian and teacher of her people.

Here is an assortment of relationships: lovers, husbands and wives, children and parents, friends; and of strong individuals: Nan, whose frog causes consternation and chaos; Daleth who defies a fundamentalist sect, only to discover that it's hard to outrun the grasping wrath of fanatics; Emma, the Pie-Faced Church; and Blackie, whose dowsing skills find happiness as well as water.
With all the magic of Stubby, the compassion of Dzelarhons, and the clear-sighted realism and wry humour her readers have come to love, these are stories to enchant, move, disturb, and provoke. The wish for a perfect world is in perpetual conflict with things as they are-and as they shouldn't be.

SEVEN SHORT STORIES BY ANNE CAMERON:
NAN must choose between an oversized amphibian and a normal life.
LOUELLA seeks fame fortune as a night-club pianist.
DAVE has his work cut out for him domesticating Louella.
EMMA decides one day to leave her job and start her own church.
And a GOOLIEGUY (did'ja ever hear of one?) brings new meaning to a lonely woman's life.]]> 368129 4.23 133 14 1989 4956186 0920080227 9780920080221 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4956186.Stubby_Amberchuk_and_the_Holy_Grail 4.50 2 368129 4.23 133 14 1987 2408540 1550170295 9781550170290 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2408540.Escape_to_Beulah 4.50 2
Some are black, some white; some are babies and some grandmothers. What they have, in common is Cassidy, a wealthy and merciless plantation owner in the pre-Civil War American South, for whom the black women are slaves and the white women are concubines.

Their story is the story of thousands of women of their time and place, until they put their heads and hearts together to plan a daring escape.

Guided by streams and mountains, helped in their arduous journey by native Americans, sustained by their own vision of a better life, the unlikely band of women and children pushes northwest to make their new home. Still they are not free of the powerful Cassidy, determined to reclaim what he believes is his property.

Their story is a tribute to the strength of women everywhere and a passionate statement about human freedom and dignity.]]> 368129 4.23 133 14 1990
