Life Woven with Song
This is the first book I've read that feels Tlingit. Reading this felt like hearing the stories told by my Tlingit family members: fishing stories, thoughts about salmon, myths of Raven. The Tlingit language is peppered in, and so is the history of the people's interactions with Russia and America.
The format of the book is odd, autobiography, short stories, history, poems, and plays all together. But it works without too much confusion at transitions.
