"Words of the Real People "collects the life stories, poetry, and
oral literature of the Yupik, Inupiaq, and Alutiiq peoples of
Alaska, making them widely available to readers in English for the
first time. Accompanied by background essays on each Native group,
the literature in this collection embraces Native Alaskan life in
all its rich variety. From tales of malevolent shamans to the
unexpected poetry of the urban experience, and from ancient tales
passed down for generations to contemporary stories being woven
into a new tradition, "Words of the Real People" stakes out an
important place for Native Alaskan literature as a vibrant, living
tradition and will be essential to folklorists, anthropologists,
and anyone interested in the storied past of our continent's most
forbidding reaches.
