Special Places, Sacred Circles : A Memoir

In her new memoir, Special Places, Sacred Circles, Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve delivers a fascinating look at the people and places that shaped her life. As a mother, wife, daughter, teacher, leader, and friend, Sneve offers a wealth of insight and wisdom.Through her powerful storytelling, she recalls the people she has met and the family members she loves, bringing readers full circle through her life's journey: from her childhood on the Rosebud Reservation to her time at South Dakota State College, where she met the love of her life; from her adulthood as she taught students across South Dakota and raised a family, all while building a career as a writer, to her time spent traveling the world and, finally, to the heartbreaking passing of her husband, Vance. Beyond a grandmotherly recollection of the past, Special Places, Sacred Circles is an intimate, beautiful portrait of the inspiring life of a Lakota writer and teacher.
