This book is almost biblical in its scope, both in the folkloric mythos of its protagonist and the tragedy of cultural genocide the characters experience.  What do you give to your children when they have chosen to abandon your ways?

the book was really confusing but the ending of it really shocked me.

I don't have a whole lot to say, which is unfortunate, as I expected this to be more thought-provoking. I did learn, but I think I would have gotten more out of a different genre or more personal account.

I read it for class
