Allen set out to understand why this was so and, more importantly, to remedy the situation. The result is this powerful collection of traditional tales, biographical writings, and contemporary short stories, many by the most accomplished Native American women writing today, including: Louise Erdrich, Mary TallMountain, Linda Hogan, and many others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paula Gunn Allen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 044990508X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780449905081\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ballantine Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/12\/1990\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.03h x 5.20w x 0.57d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/1998 pg. 1235","brand":"Paula Gunn Allen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990184100095,"sku":"9780449905081","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_df2617e3-f768-4b42-87a2-6fbc4b47c7d0.jpg?v=1683303473","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/spider-womans-granddaughters-paula-gunn-allen-9780449905081","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
