Product Information
Skaay of the Qquuna Qiighawaay may have been one of the greatest Native storytellers of all time. Born in the Haida village of Qquuna about 1827 and crippled by an injury in middle age, he devoted himself to the art of telling stories. As the Haidas' older way of life changed dramatically under the onslaught of smallpox epidemics and contact with the outside world, Skaay became the undisputed master storyteller among them. When the young American linguist John Swanton arrived in the fall of 1900 to record Haida myths, poems, and oral histories, Skaay dictated to him some of his best stories. Included in this volume are three of Skaay's masterpieces, recorded originally by John Swanton and edited and translated by Robert Bringhurst: "The Qquuna Cycle" is the longest extant work of Haida poetry and one of the great monuments of Native American literature; "Raven Travelling" is the most complex trickster story ever recorded on the Northwest Coast; and "The Qquuna Qiighawaay" is the brief and poignant story of Skaay's maternal lineage.

Reviews
"Bringhurst''s achievement is gigantic, as well as heroic. It''s one of those works that rearranges the inside of your head-a profound meditation on the nature of oral poetry and myth, and on the habits of thought and feeling that inform them. It restores to life two exceptional poets we ought to know."-Margaret Atwood, The Times (London), "This third volume in a trilogy of Haida myth and story can be read independently, though the first(A Story as Sharp as a Knife)also contains historical and cultural information not included in the others. . . . Along with the first two volumes, this is a necessary purchase for libraries with strong collections in Native American folklore."-Library Journal, "Bringhurst''s achievement is gigantic, as well as heroic.
