Thirty years since its original publication, Ceremony remains one of the most profound and moving works of Native American literature, a novel that is itself a ceremony of healing. Tayo, a World War II veteran of mixed ancestry, returns to the Laguna Pueblo Reservation. He is deeply scarred by his experience as a prisoner of the Japanese and further wounded by the rejection he encounters from his people. Only by immersing himself in the Indian past can he begin to regain the peace that was taken from him. Masterfully written, filled with the somber majesty of Pueblo myth, Ceremony is a work of enduring power.

This is one of the books that i hated at first but was drawn to after a while. Absolutely fascinating and also the first Native American literary piece I've ever read. It stands out as a very unique piece of distinctive "Native American" literature.
評分語言有點晦澀 作者的描寫非常細緻 需要耐心纔能讀完這本
評分Recover the connection w/ Tayo's homeland..
評分寫的挺好的,關於身份認同,戰爭。讀瞭一半劇情忽然猛進,咋突然來瞭個拾荒小男孩和半仙廢品站老頭呢。看到找牛藉宿女人傢的時候看暈瞭,到底是戰爭前找牛還是按照時間綫找牛啊,沒辦法去看瞭一下內容提要原來是後者。哥們兒進行瞭切頭儀式之後還在繼續著自己的療程。果然看瞭簡介之後就不太好好看瞭,後麵都是很快讀完的。看完,裏麵很多理念感覺很高大上,像白人並不是真正的敵人,大傢是一體的攬在一起死之類的。還有愛不變什麼的。其實對於死亡我隻是紙上談兵,畢竟還沒有真實的接觸到。對於那種愛過即使他死瞭也有他的愛守護著你餘生的觀點我可以認同這個邏輯,但現實來臨也不知自己會怎樣應對。我隻是希望自己死的時候不是那麼痛苦,對於自己消失於世界倒是好像沒有那麼害怕。但也不知道自己是紙老虎還是真的比較無所謂。
