Birds and feathers are symbolic in most cultures of the world. The dove has symbolised peace, the phoenix is associated with regeneration or rebirth. Birds are often seen as messengers, indeed, pigeons have been used for this very purpose. Feathers have been, and still are, used to adorn ourselves. Think, too, of some of our common phrases: birds of a feather flock together, a feather in your cap, as light as a feather, feather-brained, you could have knocked me down with a feather, feather your nest. Feathers are ubiquitous. This collection of 33 short stories each includes references to feathers. In each story the word feather is from a different language. The stories celebrate our diversity and our commonality. They were written as a challenge over a period of 33 days.

Although the prehistoric Indians of Tusayan have left no written records in the forms of books, documents, or codices, there survives from their time a most elaborate paleography which has been preserved on imperishable material in the dry soil of Arizona for several centuries. This paleography is a picture writing, often highly symbolic and complicated, but from it the student can obtain an idea of Hopi thought and its expression at that remote time. It reveals phases of ancient life which have been modified or lost in the subsequent development of the race.FROM THE BOOKS.
