Among them is Jacquie Red Feather, newly sober and tryong to make it back to the family she left behind.

Together, this chorus of voices tells of the plight of the urban Native American- grappling with a complex and painful history, with an inheritance of beauty and spirituality, with communion and sacrifice and heroism. Hailed as an instant classic, There There is at once poignant and unflinching, utterly contemporary and truly unforgettable.
