Fourth World

W. Tussinger

Between myth and legend, in that brief instant between imagination and reality, there's a remembrance in mankind of what once was-the origins of myth and fairy tale. Every culture has some leftover consciousness of what was before; before modern science, technology, and disbelief. This is a tale of three Navajo boys growing up on the largest reservation in the US during tumultuous times. While struggling with the challenges of adolescence they inadvertently find a passageway that takes them back to a previous age. They find themselves in a world where legends and traditions meet them head on. It's a world where many Native traditions start, where hierarchies don't exist and man and animal meet as equals. Their task is to reinstate the preexisting balance that greed and the desire for power has disrupted. They've yet to learn it, but perhaps their struggle is one we all must eventually face.
