1. Morgan Llywelyn's "1921: A Book of the Irish Century" finished "The Tale Teller" by Anne Hillerman

Ms Hillerman is a worthy heir of father Tony’s skill at story telling. This was a fast read, enjoyable and I learned new things about the Dine (Navaho). It has been years since I last read one of Dad’s books. I think that Anne gives a definite and refreshing woman’s point of view.The older I get the more I appreciate women authors.

As to 1921, this is the next in her books of Ireland in the 20th century. Ms Llywelyn is a consummate story teller who paints vivid images with words.
