Ellie Simmons said...: I thought it was interesting that right after John watches the owl dance, he kills a man and decides to leave owl feathers on his body. These symbolize death.; April 6, 2009 at 1:04 PM

Mister Dee said...: The book claimed that to the Spokane Indians, the owl generally symbolized death or was a harbinger of it. I wonder what the crow symbolized because of that?; April 6, 2009 at 9:38 PM
Maryclaire said...: Makenzie made a good point: those costumes look a lot like the grass dancer costume that John imagined in his pretend life. About the owl dancing: I was confused by the concept, is it basically like a ladie's choice dance? and what is with the broom?; April 7, 2009 at 11:04 AM
