Terra Trevor
We Who Walk the Seven Ways: A Memoir (University of Nebraska Press)
With tender honesty, Trevor explores how every ending is always a beginning. Her reflections on the deep power of women’s friendship, losing a child, reconciling complicated roots, and finding richness in every stage of life show that being an American Indian with a complex lineage is not about being part something, but about being part of something.
Nominated for the 2023 Electa Quinney Award for Published Stories administered by the Association for the Study of American Indian Literatures (ASAIL).
