Hungry Buffalo is blind and going deaf. He laps up books about Indians using braille writing and in one of them he comes across the Navajo medicine man Blackhorse, who agrees to perform a healing ritual to improve his hearing. “My name is Hungry Buffalo,” he introduces himself. The Indians fi nd it hard to understand him but laugh merrily, as his joy of life is infectious. Blackhorse is rather aloof at first. He doesn´t believe in this European romantic palaver. In the end, even he succumbs…
