In this futuristic novel, the wilderness is disappearing due to human incursion and urbanization. Small pockets of nature remain and are used for tourist visits and historical interpretations. Television broadcasts pictures, sounds, and smells, and space travel is commonplace.The Yantuck Indians must find a way to preserve the environment that survives on their eastern United States reservation and yet participate in a global economy. This dilemma creates factions within the tribe: those who believe in a traditional way of life and those who seek to enhance tribal finances by marketing and selling “Indian-ness.”Ashneon Quay, a young medicine-woman-in-training, is herself caught between two worlds. Growing up with elderly family members, both medicine people, she attends a local college where she studies anthropology. Quay struggles to find a balance between the traditional and the new and to identify a path that is right for her.

Greetings! This is your captain speaking. We hope you are enjoying your journey to Elsewhere. We are currently cruising at an incalculable altitude, traveling at an immeasurable speed, and we are on schedule.Oops, did I say 'schedule'? Wow, my mistake. In Elsewhere, there are no schedules. No timetables. No agendas. No calendars. No clocks. Time does not matter. We have no ETA, and no arrival date. But, that's okay. Elsewhere is always open.Now, for your information, there are a few things you should remember after we arrive in Elsewhere. First, you are on your own. What you do and what you see are up to you. Every one of you will have a unique and different experience, so there is no need for the "e;herd mentality"e; there.Second, there are no borders in Elsewhere. No fences, no boundaries, no "e;Keep Out"e; signs. You are free to roam wherever your imagination takes you.And finally, rules are non-existent in Elsewhere. You will be limited only by what your mind allows. So, I urge you to sit back, relax, and open your mind. Allow nothing to hinder you as you explore that fantastic, unbounded, unbridled, wipe-open place called Elsewhere.Thank you for attention. This is your captain, signing off….
