RAD (Read and Discuss) Texas is a book club group open to the public. The theme of our Winter/Spring 2023 series is "Being Ethnic, Becoming Americans: Struggles, Successes, Symbols Afterward, participants will be able to ask questions and the group can discuss the book further. A few books are still available to check out and with enough notice, HPL can try to borrow more from other libraries. However, you don't have to have read the book to enjoy the presentation by the library director and the group discussion. The Book for February is The Way to Rainy Mountain by N. Scott Momaday.
The Way to Rainy Mountain is a blend of history, folklore, and poetic memoir and was published in 1969. It takes the reader through author N. Scott Momaday’s own journey of discovering his Kiowa background and identity. The journey is told in three separate voices: The first voice, the ancestral voice, tells about the Kiowa by using oral traditions and myths; the second voice is a historical commentary; and finally, the third voice is Momaday’s poetic memoir of his experiences. All three voices together teach about the Kiowa’s origin, beliefs, traditions, morals, and conflicts. Not only does the journey recounted in this book help Momaday better understand his ancestry, it also teaches about the Kiowa tribe’s history.
