Beginning in a hotel room in the dark of a distant city, we travel through history and follow the memory of the Trail of Tears from the bend in the Tallapoosa River to a place near the Arkansas River. Stomp dance songs, blues, and jazz ballads echo throughout. Lost ancestors are recalled. Resilient songs are born, even as they grieve the loss of their country. Called a \"magician and a master\" (\u003cem\u003eSan Francisco Chronicle\u003c\/em\u003e), Joy Harjo is at the top of her form in \u003cem\u003eConflict Resolution for Holy Beings\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinalist for the Griffin Poetry Prize\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHarjo, Joy:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eJoy Harjo \u003c\/strong\u003eis a member of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation.
