Description
Indigenous Poetics is a collection of essays by contemporary Native American poets in the United States who explore how the genre helps to radically understand, contemplate, and realize something deeper about ourselves, our communities, and our worlds. The collection illuminates the creative process, identity, language, and the making of poetry. The contributors tell us, in their own words and on their own Indigenous terms, how they engage poetic expression as one would a tool, a teacher, a guide, a map, or a friend. Indigenous Poetics reveals poetry’s crucial role in the flourishing of Native American and Indigenous Studies.

Thank you for the ARC, this is so beyond beautiful. I dived into it not having knowledge about specific areas (Guam for example) as well as not knowing how deeply rooted Indigenous languages are with life itself. I loved how this was not only a book of poetry but also lessons about the culture, history and beauty of Indigenous poetics.
“I just thought we weren’t worthy of literature” is heart breaking but reality for many. I hope one day this book is taught in World Literature courses for high schoolers and college students.
