As a boy, Guaikaan was adopted by Columbus, uniquely positioning him to tell the story of Columbus's "discovery," directing our gaze where it rightfully belongs-on the Indigenous people for whom this land had long been home. Revised and updated by author Josae Barreiro (himself a descendant of the Taaino people), with new information and a new introduction, this richly imagined novel updates Guaikaan's carefully crafted narrative, chronicling what happened to the Taaino people when Columbus arrived and how their lives and culture were ruptured. Through Guaikaan's story, Barreiro penetrates the veil that still clouds the "discovery" of the Americas and in turn gives readers a much-needed glimpse into what really happened in1492 and its continued impact on our world today"--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a TaiÌno people $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Indians of the West Indies $x First contact with other peoples $v Fiction. 651 1 $a America $x Discovery and exploration $v Fiction. 600 14 $a Columbus, Christopher $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 941 $a 1 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230819010043.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AEC5770E3E5511EE9D75128132ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
