Synopsis "Being in Being: The Collected Works of a Master Haida Mythteller"

Being in Being contains three masterpieces by legendary Haida mythteller Skaay of the Qquuna Qiighawaay. The shortest recounts the high points of the legend of his family. The second, Raven Travelling, is the longest and most complex version of the story of the Raven ever recorded on the Northwest Coast. The third is The Qquuna Cycle, a narrative poem of nearly 5,500 lines, one of the true masterpieces of North American literature.Robert Bringhurst's eloquent and vivid translations of these works are supplemented by explanatory notes that supply the needed background information.
