Antropoloog Laurel Kendall vertelt in dit fictieve boek het verhaal van een Koreaanse sjamaan maar verwerkt in dit werk wel allerlei info die helemaal niet verzonnen is maar wel degelijk overeenstemt met de realiteit. Noem het dus een kennismaking met het Koreaanse sjamanisme in de vorm van een fictieverhaal.

"A twenty-five-year veteran of field research in Niger and Mali, anthropologist Susan J. Rasmussen examines the female-dominated practice of herbalism in the seminomadic Muslim communities of Tuareg. Medicine women, known as tinesmegelen, diagnose by touch and treat their patients - mostly women and children - with leaves, bark, and roots from trees associated with ancestral spirits. In addition to healing, they relate oral traditions, offer marital counseling, protect patients against potential domestic violence, and practice divination." "Rasmussen draws the reader into this fascinating world of medicine women through interviews, guided conversations, life histories, illustrative case studies, and, most importantly, the words of the healers and their patients. As a participant-observer, she shares her own experiences with descriptions of the treatments she herself received. Then, moving from a focused analysis to a broader contextual frame, she addresses central questions in anthropology about gender, knowledge, and the interface between religion and medicine."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
