Der Weg zum Regenbogen erinnert an die Reise von Tai-me, der heiligen Sonnentanzpuppe, und ihrem Volk in drei einzigartigen Stimmen: der legendären, der historischen und der zeitgenössischen. Es ist auch die persönliche Reise von N. Scott Momaday, der auf einer Pilgerreise zum Grab seiner Kiowa-Großmutter denselben Weg wie seine Vorfahren beschritt und sich dabei mit seinem Kiowa-Erbe auseinandersetzte. Es ist eine Evokation von drei besonderen Dingen: einer unvergleichlichen Landschaft, einer Zeit, die für immer vergangen ist, und dem menschlichen Geist, der fortbesteht.
