Description:

Shadow People begins far away and takes us on a journey home. We move from the Mendenhall Glacier in Alaska to the Redline in Boston. We begin among Yup'ik craftspeople, and travel toward the heart of family life, sometimes in painful memory, sometimes in loving recognition. We begin as observers but by the end of this book we have joined with Molly Watt in the dance of her life, and our own. ― Fred Marchant Author of Full Moon Boat & Director of The Poetry Center at Suffolk University
