Basile Hudon Beaulieu lives in a houseboat on the River Seine in Paris between 1932 and 1945. He observes the liberals, fascists, artists, and bohemians, and presents puppet shows. His thoughts and experiences are documented in the form of fifty letters to the heirs of the fur trade. Basile comments on the mercy of liberté, the torment and solidarity of Le Front Populaire and the alliance of political leftists, and considers at the same time the massacres of Native Americans, and the misery of federal policies on reservations in relation to the savage strategies of royalists, fascists, communists, and anti-Semites. The hand puppets created by Basile and his brother Aloysius make brilliant commentaries of their own, and the letters include accounts of parleys between the puppet versions of Gertrude Stein and Adolf Hitler, Apollinaire and Anaïs Nin, Sitting Bull and Victor Hugo, Carlos Montezuma and Émile Zola, Chief Joseph and Voltaire, and others. Vizenor is a unique voice of Native American presence in the world of literature, and in his inimitable creative style he delivers a moving, challenging, and darkly humorous commentary on war and modernity.
