Reviews

“Transit presents meticulous research on the serpent mound in Ohio. A mathematical mapping of the mound, Allen’s tour de force teaches us how to access the ancient serpent that points the way to galaxies and beyond. I will teach this remarkable text for many years to come.” -- LeAnne Howe, University of Georgia “What is a near-replica of the great Ohio Serpent Mound doing on the grounds of Seattle’s Native American cultural center? Allen’s quest to understand the earthwork as a North American traveling form brings together historical detective work, literary and aesthetic critique, embodied experience, and a brilliant literary voice all its own. An evocative and compelling exploration not to be missed!” -- Philip J. Deloria, Harvard University
