ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Deena Metzger has been writing for fifty years.
Story is her medicine. Her latest novel, A Rain of
Night Birds, a confrontation between indigenous
knowledge and the modern scientific mind, bears
witness: climate change arises from the same
colonial mind that enacted genocide on the Native
people of this country. It was published on Earth
Day, April 22, 2017. Her other books include the
novels La Negra y Blanca (2012 PEN Oakland
Josephine Miles Award for Excellence in Literature), Feral; Ruin andBeauty: New and
Selected Poems; Doors: A Fiction for Jazz Horn; Entering the Ghost River: Meditations
on the Theory and Practice of Healing and Tree: Essays and Pieces.
