We are losing worlds upon worlds."-Louise Erdrich, New York Times Book Review"The Yanomami of the Amazon, like all the indigenous peoples of the Americas and Australia, have experienced the end of what was once their world. Yet they have survived and somehow succeeded in making sense of a wounded existence. They have a lot to teach us."-Amitav Ghosh, The Guardian"A literary treasure a must for anyone who wants to understand more of the diverse beauty and wonder of existence."-New ScientistA now classic account of the life and thought of Davi Kopenawa, shaman and spokesman for the Yanomami, The Falling Sky paints an unforgettable picture of an indigenous culture living in harmony with the Amazon forest and its creatures, and its devastating encounter with the global mining industry.
