Description

"In The Moon in Two Windows, Momaday returns to themes he first explored in The Indolent Boys. Set in the early 1900s, the screenplay centers on the children of defeated Indian tribes who are forced into assimilation at Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania, where the U.S. Government established the first off-reservation boarding school. Momaday's characters - including Jim Thorpe and fellow players on the school's renowned football team - are propelled across an unimaginable cultural divide. Some survive, others do not - and all are changed forever."--BOOK JACKET.
