Let me say at the outset that this book is not about Bear (he would
be spoken of in the singular and masculine, capitalized and without
an article), or it is only incidentally about him. I am less
interested in defining the being of Bear than in trying to
understand something about the spirit of wilderness, of which Bear
is a very particular expression. ...Bear is a template of the
wilderness." - from the Introduction Since receiving the Pulitzer
Prize in 1969 for his novel House Made of Dawn, N. Scott Momaday
has had one of the most remarkable careers in twentieth-century
American letters. Here, in In the Bear's House, Momaday
passionately explores themes of loneliness, sacredness, and
aggression through his depiction of Bear, the one animal that has
both inspired and haunted him throughout his lifetime. With
transcendent dignity and gentleness, In the Bear's House celebrates
Momaday's extraordinary creative vision and his evolution as one of
our most gifted artists.
