Echoing the ancient sounds of the Native American oral tradition, wisdom
keeper Gabriel Horn (White Deer of Autumn) writes in praise of the
primal mind. With a profound affinity for Florida’s beauty, Horn shares
the wisdom he has learned from dolphins in the Florida Keys. He
describes his wonder at the splendor of the natural world and his
respect for the spirits of the supernatural realms and the Star People
of our possible future who inhabit those realms in ancient stories.
Sometimes
angry, always generous, he implores the reader to contemplate modern
society's rejection of the sacred and to seek a deeper understanding of
the interconnectedness of all life. His search for dignity, while
grappling with the complexities of contemporary life, lifts his story
from personal memoir to universal truth.
