Críticas:

"Weaving a complex web of indigenous feminist, ecological, transnational, and postcolonial analysis, Coltelli's provocative collection not only provides insights into Silko's important novel but also models the balance and imaginative generosity so urgently needed for thinking about crucial issues facing our global community."--Karen L. Kilcup, professor of American literature at the University of North Carolina and editor of "Native American Women's Writing, c. 1800-1924"--Karen L. Kilcup (01/28/2008)

Reseña del editor:

Leslie Marmon Silko (Laguna, b. 1949) has long been a significant contributor to modern American Indian literature. In this landmark volume, leading scholars from Europe and North America assess her career and growing legacy, focusing especially on her visionary novel, "Gardens in the Dunes". The topics include the power of modern resistance, indigenous feminism, the role of history, the effects of European culture and history on her work, and the force of storytelling and nonlinear narration. These essays variously and insightfully illuminate the work and life of a remarkable Native writer in the twenty-first century.
