Interpretation Toward Books Winona's Web: A Novel of Discovery (Winona Trilogy #1)

To the surprise of her family, Winona Pathfinder, an elderly Lakota Sioux medicine woman, announces she intends to die in two months. For counseling, Winona is referred to psychologist Dr. Meggie O'Connor--Caucasian, middle-aged, and divorced. A reluctant client, the feisty Winona decides to turn the tables and teach Dr. O'Connor a thing or two about life, while steadfastly refusing to renounce her plans to die.



As fall turns to winter on the scenic Leelanau Peninsula of Michigan, Winona casts her web around the doctor. Ever-dubious, Meggie O'Connor sees her professional methods slowly crumble before the earthy humor and soaring spirit of her new teacher. Who is healing whom? Can the doctor convince Winona to step back from the gates to the spirit world?



As Meggie's eyes open, she also rediscovers the pull of romance, involving her with two intriguing Native American men. Strange visions begin to appear, and Meggie faces a battle of wills with her stubborn patient armed with a prayer pipe, a strong heart, and the conviction that she is about to "cross over."



Graceful and powerful, the story is deeply rooted in traditional Lakota teachings. Winona's Web will delight you and touch your heart with its message of hope and prayer, love and loss, and learning to listen to the web of the world.

Evaluation Of Books Winona's Web: A Novel of Discovery (Winona Trilogy #1)

This book helped me find my way through a very rough time in my life. It has one of the best opening lines EVER. "Home is where the heart can celebrate each awakening day."

given to me in high school by my favorite english teacher & debate coach, this book proved to be the coming-of-age story i needed. it was not the story of a cliche, troubled teenager, but instead, of a woman whose career and family are not what she envisioned them to be. it's set in the area in which i grew up and focuses on a lot of traditional Lakota teachings. a book to be added to the canon? no. but a beautiful story, wonderfully written, that encourages you to drink in the surroundings

I kept waiting for the Aha! moment, where I would finally understand the wisdom that the Sioux woman Winona was trying to impart on the main character Meggie. The moment never came. Or maybe it just went over my head.

A weekend book which reminded me that all good relationships involve a mutuality of learning.

Read it years ago. Interesting how a book affects one at different times in your life.

Novel of self discovery. Set in Suttons Bay. Kept me interested. I would like to read book 2.

I enjoyed the integration of Native American customs/beliefs in this novel.
