Virtual Author Talks! Mona Susan Power Native Rights and Culture in Fiction

TCPL is excited to offer a series of Virtual Author Talks!

Mona Susan Power

Native Rights and Culture in Fiction

You’re invited to join us as Mona Susan Power chats about her newest novel, A Council of Dolls. This conversation highlights how her work explores Native Rights and Native American culture, in particular using an important symbol that anchors comfort and companionship in Native life: dolls. 

From the mid-century metropolis of Chicago to the windswept ancestral lands of the Dakota people to the bleak and brutal Indian boarding schools, A Council of Dolls is the story of three women, told in part through the stories of the dolls they carried. A modern masterpiece, A Council of Dolls is gorgeous, quietly devastating, and ultimately hopeful, shining a light on the echoing damage wrought by Indian boarding schools and the historical massacres of Indigenous people. Mona Susan Power weaves a spell of love and healing that comes alive on the page.
