Abstract

In Sacred Water, Leslie Marmon Silko's collection of 41 short pieces and 39 black and white photographs, water is the thread guiding the author through a ritual and a celebration. The water stories form a collective story. They bond with the innumerable narrations of Indian land which speak of the landscape as a direct manifestation of time's cyclical continuity and cohesion.
