Synopsis
Long before these Cherokee stories were gathered on the page, they lived in spoken memory, carried through firelight, forest paths, mountain places, rushing waters, and the deep mystery of the natural world. Here are tales of the first fire, the making of the world, the coming of corn and game, the origin of death, the return of tobacco, the stars above, the flood below, and the strange beginnings of familiar things. Each story opens a doorway into a world where the land is alive with meaning, and even the smallest feature of nature may carry an ancient memory.
Animals speak, trick, boast, race, marry, escape, and outwit one another in stories full of wit, danger, humor, and surprise. Rabbit tangles with Terrapin, Possum, Bear, Wolf, and Otter, while Deer, Wildcat, Turkey, Owl, Buzzard, Eagle, Snake, and many others move through a world where every creature has a place and every odd feature may have a story behind it. Some tales are playful and clever, some are strange and unsettling, and some turn sharply when pride, hunger, fear, or curiosity leads a creature too far.
Beyond the animal tales wait giants, enchanted lakes, spirit folk, thunder beings, dangerous monsters, haunted places, lost settlements, hidden towns, and wonders just past the edge of ordinary life. These stories move from creation to trickery, from familiar forests to unseen worlds under mountains and waters, from laughter to terror and back again. Retold for modern readers, this volume brings together creation myths, animal tales, origin stories, and supernatural legends in a vivid journey through Cherokee storytelling tradition.
