Description

Ceremony, a profound and moving work of Native American literature, is a novel of healing and self-discovery. Tayo, a World War II veteran, returns to his Laguna Pueblo Reservation, deeply scarred by his experience as a prisoner of the Japanese and wounded by rejection from his people. To regain the peace taken from him, Tayo immerses himself in the Indian past, seeking solace in the somber majesty of Pueblo myth. This masterfully written novel is a powerful exploration of identity, culture, and the human spirit. The Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition features a new preface by the author and an introduction by Larry McMurtry, offering readers a deeper understanding of this enduring work.
