The Wolf at Twilight

An Indian Elder's Journey Through a Land of Ghosts and Shadows

By: Kent Nerburn

Narrated by: Peter Berkrot

A note is left on a car windshield, an old dog dies, and Kent Nerburn finds himself back on the Lakota reservation where he traveled more than a decade before with a tribal elder named Dan. The touching, funny, and haunting journey that ensues goes deep into reservation boarding-school mysteries, the dark confines of sweat lodges, and isolated Native homesteads far back in the Dakota hills in search of ghosts that have haunted Dan since childhood.

In this fictionalized account of actual events, Nerburn brings the land of the northern High Plains alive and reveals the Native American way of teaching and learning with a depth that few outsiders have ever captured.

A fantastic story told by an amazing artist

Loved it- very moving, and Peter's voice acting really brings it alive. Great story, great narrator.

Captivating

This book will touch you in all of your emotional triggers, anger, laughter, deep sadness.Most importantly a real honest view of how modern day Native America truly is. The wisdom that we as the human race needs to understand and redirect our ways for the betterment of every thing.

Repair and sacred healing

This book is a most touching attempt of bridging the chasm between Indian and White Man, offering a glimpse into the Native wisdom of life so we may get a tiny inclin of what we all have lost. May the Wisdom live on and help repair the hurt, injustice and damage done. Yvonne Munshi January 2022

heartbreaking. emotional. insightful.

I loved it. the native American philosophy presented in this book is so poignant and so far removed from what the common white man American believes to be right. if only we could adopt Dan's belief system and carry it forward to our heirs, what a remarkable different and indescribably better world we would have.
thank you

Beautiful and touching

Wow, what a story. Thanks for sharing and telling their story. It is heart breaking but at the same time so powerful. Their strength is unbelievable and there is so much to learn from the Native Americans.
