Trickster Drift- Episode 8
from Spoil Me · host Natasha Kingston
Thank you again to Robin for commissioning this episode! I just realized that I'm only one episode away from the end of the book, and I'm completely unsure how this can possibly get wrapped up in a satisfactory manner. I'm LOVING this banana-pants book so far, though. I am actually remembering to post all of the links that Robin sent me, and I hope that you all will check them out! Robin, I'm pasting your words to me with the links, hopefully that's okay. "On the topic of North and Central Coast First Nations stories, there really aren't enough good resources out there - but the best printed collection of Haisla stories is actually by Eden Robinson's late uncle, Gordon Robinson. It's available on Smashwords at: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/6324Some of the other things mentioned, like ogres, ape men (probably the basis for sasquatch legends in the Pacific Northwest), and cannibals are more Haida, as far as I can tell. This page (which is periodically up and down) was recommended to me by a Coast Salish friend: http://www.native-languages.org/haida-legends.htmAlso, the Wikipedia page for the society that Nana Sophia was implied to be a part of in the first book doesn't look too bad: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamatsa"Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!
