The stories in Night Flying Woman put a face on the Ojibway story and made it more personal for me as a reader.

I was already aware of most of the atrocities committed by the Europeans but this book made it more personal for me to see who was affected by the Europeans actions. Most books that I have seen through my childhood and young adulthood

Swimming pools: Similar to the short story‚ The Swimmer‚ my neighborhood has many swimming pools. Like the setting in the story‚ they seem to form a snake-like‚ “quasi-subterranean stream that curved across the country” (Norton 2‚ 1234). My swimming pool is physically similar to many of the pools in the story as it is located in the backyard‚ fenced up‚ and contains water.

The rocking chair is by far one of the best ways to soothe an irritable infant or bring peace and comfort to an adult. My rocking chair may seem like an ordinary one‚ the
