"This work deals specifically with the oftentimes overlooked woman-figure in contemporary American Indian literature. By linking the female characters on N. Scott Momaday's Pulitzer Prize winning novel House Made of Dawn and his most recent book The Ancient Child, Leslie M. Silko's Ceremony, and Paula Gunn Allen's The Woman Who Owned the Shadows to creator-goddesses of the Navajo and Pueblo origin myths, this book both uncovers the significance of the novels' female aspects and adds another dimension to the role and function of the male characters.
