The Wolf at Twilight

An Indian Elder's Journey Through a Land of Ghosts and Shadows

De: Kent Nerburn

Narrado por: Peter Berkrot

A note is left on a car windshield, an old dog dies, and Kent Nerburn finds himself back on the Lakota reservation where he traveled more than a decade before with a tribal elder named Dan. The touching, funny, and haunting journey that ensues goes deep into reservation boarding-school mysteries, the dark confines of sweat lodges, and isolated Native homesteads far back in the Dakota hills in search of ghosts that have haunted Dan since childhood.

In this fictionalized account of actual events, Nerburn brings the land of the northern High Plains alive and reveals the Native American way of teaching and learning with a depth that few outsiders have ever captured.

Good stiry

I learned allot from this book about honesty of the author. An easy listen, gave me new roads to travel in my search for learning about Native American thoughts.

There are things in this narrative that will touch you heart and bring you pain. A part of my search for truth denied me by my country.

Love this Author

I truly loved this book. The only thing I disliked about it but really didn’t mind was the man who spoke for the old man Dan. I truly enjoyed listing to the old man speak from neither wolf nor dog. This book had so many teachings and history that we should all know about. This book touched my heart and truly made me think about all the native people who’ve been mistreated, hurt, lied to, tricked, taken and forced to forget who they truly are and came from, even forgotten. If you are up for some history and great and sad stories read this book.

A fantastic story told by an amazing artist

Loved it- very moving, and Peter's voice acting really brings it alive. Great story, great narrator.

Captivating

This book will touch you in all of your emotional triggers, anger, laughter, deep sadness.Most importantly a real honest view of how modern day Native America truly is. The wisdom that we as the human race needs to understand and redirect our ways for the betterment of every thing.

Repair and sacred healing

This book is a most touching attempt of bridging the chasm between Indian and White Man, offering a glimpse into the Native wisdom of life so we may get a tiny inclin of what we all have lost. May the Wisdom live on and help repair the hurt, injustice and damage done. Yvonne Munshi January 2022

Aging, reconciliation, reckoning

A must-read after Neither Wolf nor Dog, but sad, too. Writing and performance both excellent.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND

This is the second book in the series.
#1- “Neither wolf nor dog”
#2- “The wolf at twilight “
#3-“The girl who sang with the buffalo”
Audible does not indicate the numbers in the series, which is very important.
These three books are one of the best books about the Native American culture and how they were treated by the invaders of their nation.
These books should be required reading in schools.
The author, mr. Kent Nerburn and the narrator, mr. Peter Berkrot are both outstanding.
I urge you to check out the other books by mr. Nerburn.
My thanks to all involved, JK.

Loved!!

I loved this story. Although full of heartbreak when learning about the terrible truths and horrible injustices but moving, educational, VERY thought provoking, and it spoke loudly to me.

heartbreaking. emotional. insightful.

I loved it. the native American philosophy presented in this book is so poignant and so far removed from what the common white man American believes to be right. if only we could adopt Dan's belief system and carry it forward to our heirs, what a remarkable different and indescribably better world we would have.
thank you

Beautiful and touching

Wow, what a story. Thanks for sharing and telling their story. It is heart breaking but at the same time so powerful. Their strength is unbelievable and there is so much to learn from the Native Americans.
