Only Drunks and Children Tell the Truth

Mixed blood Ojibwe writer Drew Hayden Taylor touches the heart with this two act play which relates the pain and grief resulting from government programs in which Indian children were virtually stolen from their parents to be adopted by non-natives.The plot revolves around the newly found relationship of long-separated sisters who have been reunited; one from the reservation and the other an urban raised attorney. A short play of pathos and humor, the characters are very alive and will remain in the reader's memory This reader found herself hoping to have an opportunity to see the play performed someday.
