Pale as Real Ladies
Poems for Pauline Johnson
Joan Crate
Part white, part Mohawk princess, Pauline Johnson was an internationally known Canadian writer and performer. Pauline Johnson would give readings dressed first as a Mohawk princess, then as an elegant white woman. Joan Crate's collection contains poems about Johnson's personal and family life; the passions which animated and tormented her. Joan Crate honours Pauline Johnson's struggle between conflicting visions of reality.
