 When the Native American historic fiction novel "Chétan" was created, the author, Pamela Faye had a purpose in mind, to deliver a compelling and unique story to the marketplace... a timeless tale to flow beyond the realms of today into the world of tomorrow.
(PRWEB) November 13, 2004 -- Reviewed by the librarian Faye
Weston; Faye delivers “This is a wonderful journey into another place, another
culture: that of the North American Indians. It is a challenging read, rich in
detail of customs, nature and language. The dialect being fully explained, helps
to create an atmosphere so absorbing that it lingers long after the book is
finished.”
The storytelling of “Chétan” was narrated through the Native American spirit
voice of a Shawnee Elder, to challenge the intelligent mind to walk in the shoes
of another, even if only for a fleeting moment in time. The Shawnee language
lifts from turning pages as the songbird’s voice, flitting from chapter to
chapter as the honeyeater wiskilo'tha gathers sweet nectar from opening blooms.
The book cover artwork for “Chétan” is by the artist and sculptor Marianne
“Caroselli” James, renowned in many art museums in The States, the title of
“Caroselli’s” artwork is “Sacred Chief”. The design for the trade paperback
layout is by Stacy L. King and has been entered by the publisher Mundania Press
in the QUASAR book cover awards given yearly. A book cover, which speaks clearly
of the story between turning pages, a story, heavily researched from histories
turning pages. “Chétan” is a timeless tale to carry to the hearts of future
generations to come.
“Do not tell me, show me that I may see.” To read the story of “Chétan” is to be
drawn into a world of beauty through Native American cultures and traditions; to
learn the meaning of honor and respect; to see visions carry from the depths of
spirituality. A message as old as time itself; lessons are still to be learned.
Bounds have been set between native people, between cultures, between nations,
between beliefs and expectations. As woven strands of the spider's web, one
thread binds all-- To protect that which is sacred to the heart.
The storyteller, Pamela Faye, weaves an intricate web glistening with dewdrops
from the rising sun, while the haze of Indian Summer lifts to the spirit fires
of the creator of all things. It is Mother Earth who sighs with whispering
breath to carry her message through the disgruntled rustle of leaves in ti-qui.
Will her children ever hear? … Not until rivers of blood soak into the earth and
the whiteness of bones lie in silent graves.
