Abstract

In Solar Storms (1995), writer Linda Hogan explores the universe of indigenous people who experienced profound traumatic experiences. This article focuses on the character of Hannah Wing, the mother of the book’s protagonist, Angela. This analysis takes into account how Hogan uses language and stories – two very important aspects for Native Americans –in order to develop Hannah’s character, which is deeply damaged by intergenerational trauma.
