Little Eagle: Awaken and Sleep (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781938463341)

This is a mystical novel about one man's journey to find himself as he travels with the famous Canadian-Ojibwe artist, Norval Morrisseau. As Morrisseau's secretary and traveling companion, the main character, Gilbert Pet駭 (a.k.a., Little Eagle) takes a spiritual journey of awakening throughout parts of western Canada where he experiences bouts of alcoholism and drug addiction, art forgery, harassment from the Canadian mob, and ancient Ojibwe spiritualism. At the end of the novel the reader is left wondering whether Pet駭 will ever accept the spirituality he discovered on his travels with Morrisseau and his spiritual guide, the Native American mystic and shaman, Many Tongues. As the novel nears its conclusion, Pet駭 ultimately rejects his newly discovered spirituality and link with Many Tongues in favor of a typically traditional life with a good job, a decent income, a nice home, and a loving husband. However, the lingering spirit of Many Tongues continues to haunt Pet駭 when all is quiet and he is alone to remember.
