Why the Music?!

I don't know why there is music playing in the background. It gave me anxiety. I decided to read the book instead of listen because its impossible to pay attention to the book with the music in the background. Zitkala-Su is amazing and everyone should read her work but maybe not listen to it via this audiobook.

Western classical music all through the narration!

What a travesty! The entire recording has Western classical music playing along behind it! Whoever produced this should have known better. A gross disrespect of Native American culture. That's why it's so cheap! Choose different recording! The stories are worth the money.

Worst narration ever!

Between mispronunciation and odd pauses for breaths this is almost unlistenable! Also, it’s strange to me that a book written by a brilliant woman from a woman’s perspective was not narrated by a woman.
