 coming-of-age memoir from a poet praised for her "breathtaking complex 
 witness and word-remaking language" -Adrienne Rich\n\nIn this soul-stirring 
 memoir, grounded in tribal myth and ancestry, music and poetry, Joy Harjo, 
 one of our leading Native American voices, details her journey to becoming 
 a poet. Born in Oklahoma, the end place of the Trail of Tears, Harjo grew 
 up learning to dodge an abusive stepfather by finding shelter in her 
 imagination, a deep spiritual life, and connection with the natural world. 
 She attended an Indian arts boarding school, where she nourished an 
 appreciation for painting, music, and poetry; gave birth while still a 
 teenager; and struggled on her own as a single mother, eventually finding 
 her poetic voice. Narrating the complexities of betrayal and love, CRAZY 
 BRAVE is a memoir about family and the breaking apart necessary in finding 
 her spirit-charged voice. Harjo's tale of a hardscrabble youth, young 
 adulthood, and transformation into an award-winning poet and musician is 
 haunting, unique, and visionary.\n\nMs. Harjo is a gifted writer who can 
 both celebrate and contemplate the mysteries and cycles of our ongoing 
 existence. -Amy Ray, Indigo Girls\n\n"Joy Harjo is now writing a visionary 
 poetry that is among the very best we have." \n-Village Voice\n\nHarjo is 
 the author of 15 books and 6 music albums, including: "She Had Some 
 Horses", The Woman Who Fell from the Sky", and "In Mad Love and War."\n
