Error

Overall, a very helpful article. However, there is a mistake in the middle where you are talking about the narrator in \\"Winter in the Blood\\". As you know, the narrator is nameless but you refer to him as Tayo, the protagonist in \\"Ceremony\\". It can be confusing and misleading for someone who hasn't read the books.
