Biographical note
Betty Louise Bell, a Cherokee mixed-blood born in Oklahoma, received her Ph.D. from Ohio State University and now teaches courses in English, American studies, and women's studies at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
Faces in the Moon is the story of three generations of Cherokee women, as viewed by the youngest, Lucie, a woman who has been able to use education and her imagination to escape the confines of her rootless, impoverished upbringing. When her mother's illness summons her back to Oklahoma, Lucie finds herself confronted with the legacy of a childhood she has worked hard to separate from her adult self.Her mother, Gracie, and her maternal aunt, Auney, are members of the Cherokees' ""lost generation,"" women who rejected the traditional rural ways in search of a more glamorous life as autonomous working women.
