    Brief comment on several essays within Yellow Woman and a Beauty of the Spirit
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on 4 January 2008*

The essay, "Language and Literature from a Pueblo Indian Perspective" is one of the greatest cultural bridges ever constructed between the Euro-American, linear mind and that of the Native American.  I've read and taught that essay many times and each time I go over it, I find another point that merits reflection.  Consider, for example, the story about the little girl who drowns herself with that of a typical fairy tale.  First of all, unlike the fairy tale, but pretty true to life, there is no happy ending.  There are days that all our best efforts turn into snakes, children do commit suicide on the false belief that their mothers/families have rejected them, and if, as I believe, this story illustrates how stories fulfill the purpose of bringing people together, (the death of a child, particularly if the parent is the indirect cause through lapse of judgemnt, is the greatest grief to bear, and knowing that others have also experienced it does give the strength to go on living), it does so on more than a superfical level. The essay itself illustrates non-linear thinking as it does not go from point A to B to C, but starts at C and radiates out from that focal point, "like a spider's web."  For those who want a true and accurate insight as to Pueblo thought and experience, this book is one of the best.  It also helps that Leslie Marmon Silko is a master writer.
