I read Wolf at Twilight when it came out last Fall - and am still haunted by the stories... Congrats on winning the MN Book Award – all deep, true stories are a mixture of fact and fiction, afterall.

After reading Neither Wolf Nor Dog, I jumped right into Wolf at Twilight. Amazing reads, both of them. In fact, I feel so strongly about NWND, that I bought 30 copies to give away. Everyone who reads it will be compelled to buy Wolf At Twilight themselves. Readers will be forever changed as they begin to consider the Native experience. Thank you. Great job, Kent!

The Wolf at Twilight said, "I'm what you're looking for"...and it is. I've been trying to read it a little bit at a time, so I can savor it. I don't want to lose these people too quickly. Thank you for this labor of love. This is the first book of yours that I've experienced...there will be more in my library and given to friends.

Having grown up in South Dakota as a bleeding heart liberal both by nature and nurture and surrounded by many Lakota friends I thought I had a good grasp of the soul of the people. Due to the great fortunes of love I was thrust even further into the lives and hearts of the traditional Lakota and soon learned that my understanding was superficial at best. Between the stories that are too painful to tell and the feelings, both emotional and spiritual, that are next to impossible to express I found that my understanding was far more incomplete than I would ever have admitted to myself. Even in that incomplete understanding I found a beautiful view of the world and some of the most admirable people I ever hope to meet. Your books have helped me understand everything from the profound to the mundane, right down to that wonderfully soft Lakota handshake and the art of listening. Your words have the power to bring a tear and a smile in the same sentence. Nerburn, you and Dan and Grover and Fatback and Bronson and all the rest have made quite a footprint on this world that I hope never erodes through the ravages of apathy and ignorance. You've changed lives and hearts for the better and I can think of no more noble accomplishment for one of God's children. Again, I can't thank you enough. I can’t thank you enough.
