520    The long-awaited, profoundly moving, and unforgettable new
       novel from PEN Award-winning Native American author Mona 
       Susan Power, spanning three generations of Yanktonai 
       Dakota women from the 19th century to the present day.    
       From the mid-century metropolis of Chicago to the 
       windswept ancestral lands of the Dakota people, to the 
       bleak and brutal Indian boarding schools, A Council of 
       Dolls is the story of three women, told in part through 
       the stories of the dolls they carried….  Sissy, born 1961
       : Sissy's relationship with her beautiful and volatile 
       mother is difficult, even dangerous, but her life is also 
       filled with beautiful things, including a new Christmas 
       present, a doll called Ethel. Ethel whispers advice and 
       kindness in Sissy's ear, and in one especially terrifying 
       moment, maybe even saves Sissy's life.  Lillian, born 1925
       : Born in her ancestral lands in a time of terrible change,
       Lillian clings to her sister, Blanche, and her doll, Mae. 
       When the sisters are forced to attend an "Indian school" 
       far from their home, Blanche refuses to be cowed by the 
       school's abusive nuns. But when tragedy strikes the 
       sisters, the doll Mae finds her way to defend the girls.  
       Cora, born 1888: Though she was born into the brutal 
       legacy of the "Indian Wars," Cora isn't afraid of the 
       white men who remove her to a school across the country to
       be "civilized." When teachers burn her beloved buckskin 
       and beaded doll Winona, Cora discovers that the spirit of 
       Winona may not be entirely lost…  A modern masterpiece, A
       Council of Dolls is gorgeous, quietly devastating, and 
       ultimately hopeful, shining a light on the echoing damage 
       wrought by Indian boarding schools, and the historical 
       massacres of Indigenous people. With stunning prose, Mona 
       Susan Power weaves a spell of love and healing that comes 
       alive on the page.
