26 09 2006In the novel Ceremony, there was a story within a story. In an almost poetic set up told a story. The story was about how rain was taken away, and the lands were almost cursed. The rain was taken away because people in a sense lost respect for having the rain, It was almost a privlage that was taken away. All life changed. As the story unfolds, you find out in order to get the rain back a humming bird and a fly, go on a journey to right the wrong, to get “storm clouds”. Once embarked on the trip, they find them selfs running around, to got one thing they had to do another.
Eventually the people get there rain back, almost the same way Tayo gains respect in the story. Almos to the point where tayo had to go to hell and back to be involed in ceremonies at home, just like the humming bird and the fly had to go all over to get the rain back. In the end there hard work and determination prevailed and they all got what they wanted the most.
