In this book, a consummate storyteller unfolds his most personal and poignant story: his own. Bowmans Store traces the journey of writer Joseph Sonny Bruchac from a childhood filled with an abundance of both love and secrecy, to the dawning of his career as one of the best-known authors and storytellers of Native American history and lore. Compelling, lyrical, and deeply moving, Bruchacs memoir tells how he came to fully understand, and eventually claim, his Abenaki heritage, despite his grandparents unspoken pact never to discuss Grandpas Indian blood. Through experiences both painful and hilarious, Sonny finds himself drawn to all things Indian long before he learns of his grandfathers hidden Abenaki roots. Bowmans Store beautifully weaves themes from Bruchacs intimate knowledge of Native American cultures with vivid autobiographical scenes to create a touching story about self-discovery.
