In 1492 Christopher Columbus rode the wind.
Unwittingly, he set in motion the smearing of European domination onto the Americas. Now, more than 500 years on, an ironic reversal of fortune is taking root. And, slowly, surely for our modern western civilization … everything is changing.
In a sleepy little prairie town the stilling of the ever-present wind is the first silent signaling.
A quietly defiant boy, Clify, from a privileged family; a whimsical young girl, Windy, from the poor side of town … the story follows their passages through childhood into adolescence, adulthood and finally into their elder years, in a world spun upside-down.
The story alludes to the ongoing challenges facing many of today’s first peoples. Alas, it comes up flat broke where answers are concerned. Instead, it aims to steer us toward what matters more …
