Leslie Marmon Silko's groundbreaking book Storyteller, first published in 1981, blends original short stories and poetry influenced by the traditional oral tales that she heard growing up on the Laguna Pueblo in New Mexico with autobiographical passages, folktales, family memories, and photographs. As she mixes traditional and Western literary genres, Silko examines themes of memory, alienation, power, and identity; communicates Native American notions regarding time, nature, and spirituality; and explores how stories and storytelling shape people and communities.

I was so excited to see Storyteller on audio, but the narration unfortunately fell flat for me. Silko has a definitely unique writing voice, and this compilation of her creations is fairly unusual and the narrator was unable to pick up on the voice required to bring her words to full life. There were a couple of moments where they started to give the words their power, such as at the end of Lullaby, but overall some more rehearsal and study of the language probably would have made it much stronger. So, I can't give it less than four stars because it is Silko, but the narration was a letdown.
