After reading and reviewing Don’t Sleep There Are Snakes, I emailed Dan Everett to ask him for answers to the questions I raised in my review. His response was that I should read his newest book, Language The Cultural Tool. And so I have.

What he found was a language that defies all existing linguistic theories and reflects a way of life that evades contemporary understanding: The Pirahã have no counting system and no fixed terms for color.

R.M.W. Dixon's "Searching For Aboriginal Languages" covers some of the same ground as Don't Sleep, though without the baggage of decades of arguing about Chomsky. It first came out in the 80s, but got a rerelease this year.
For example, a snake may choose to sleep along the branches of a tree, with its body stretched out and wrapped around the branch. This position provides the snake with a secure perch and minimizes the risk of falling while asleep. Overall, the coiled and straight positions are both important sleep positions for snakes. A curse upon my manners and my pride if I was saying that you were a liar. But, my noble love, for the sake of love and propriety, sleep a little further away.

Ambiguous endings don’t necessarily play well with YA-loving audiences, and The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is certainly a movie that will be playing with YA viewers in mind. To be sure, the prequel book’s ending essentially sets up the path Coriolanus Snow’s life will take, as well as the reason behind his power in The Hunger Games
