About

This blog details the cultural aspects surrounding the novel “Ceremony” by Leslie Marmon Silko in relation to traditional Native American, New Mexico, and personal-level perspectives on culture – featuring my own!

Here we will discuss the purpose of Ceremony and Silko’s motivation for writing it and how it relates to the preservation of Native American culture, tradition, language, and natural resources. This will be further exemplified by a variety of other books and movies from contemporary culture as well.
