Beskrivning
Louise Erdrich has shaped the possibilities for Native American, women's and popular fiction in the United States during the late twentieth century. Louise Erdrich collects new essays by noted scholars of Native American Literature on three important novels that chart the trajectory of Erdrich's novelistic career, Tracks (1988), The Last Report on the Miracles At Little No Horse (2001) and The Plague of Doves (2007). The book illuminates Erdrich's multiperspectival representation of Native American culture and history. Focusing on such topics as humor, religion, ethnicity, gender, race, sexuality, trauma, history, and narrative form, the essays collected here offer fresh readings of Erdrich's explorations of Native American identities through her innovative fictions.

Recensioner i media

Deborah Madsen is one of the leading scholars of Native American literature in Europe. She has assembled a talented group of scholars to analyze three important novels by Louise Erdrich (the early Tracks and the recent Last Report and Plague of Doves). Erdrich is one of the best-known Native writers working today, and these essays, employing methodologies ranging from gender and LGBT studies to critical race theory represent an important contribution to scholarship about her. It deserves a place on the shelf of any serious scholar of contemporary Native literature.
