false <![CDATA[Ceremony (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170387588m/52382.jpg 588234 9 Thirty years since its original publication, <i>Ceremony</i> remains one of the most profound and moving works of Native American literature, a novel that is itself a ceremony of healing. Tayo, a World War II veteran of mixed ancestry, returns to the Laguna Pueblo Reservation. He is deeply scarred by his experience as a prisoner of the Japanese and further wounded by the rejection he encounters from his people. Only by immersing himself in the Indian past can he begin to regain the peace that was taken from him. Masterfully written, filled with the somber majesty of Pueblo myth, <i>Ceremony</i> is a work of enduring power. 2937863 1977 Ceremony total:2352|5:699|4:741|3:607|2:222|1:83| 2352 8807 3090 249 5 3 false false Wed Feb 13 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 25 13:03:47 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 13 02:05:49 -0800 2008 more...]]> 1 1 false false Wed Mar 05 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Tue Feb 26 22:34:41 -0800 2008 Wed Mar 05 11:08:32 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 1 true false Mon Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Tue Dec 25 09:07:46 -0800 2007 Tue Dec 25 09:08:23 -0800 2007 I loved the smooth montage of time in this book. It is so natural and instinctive, just like real life. At least in my life, I perceive time in content-based manner.

Don't be fooled.
They are all we have, you see,
all we have to fight off
illness and death.

You don't have anything
