5.0 out of 5 stars
Briliant and funny,
By A Customer
This review is from: Red On Red: Native American Literary Separatism (Paperback)
Craig Womak's "Red on Red" is a briliant analysis of the current state of Native Literature. He gives the reader insights and guidance for understanding native writers, and a scholar can learn the much needed literary foundations for learning to "read" native writers. THEN, just to prove that even criticism is fun, he changes up in mid-stream and offers extremely hilarious narratives, written from his own Creek roots. Very fun to read, and an engaging writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Groundbreaking study,
By A Customer
This review is from: Red On Red: Native American Literary Separatism (Paperback)
Womack's book is the most provocative and important study of Native American literature since Arnold Krupat's Ethnocriticism in 1992. It is the first to really show what a tribally centered criticism can look like, and offers a remarkable synthesis of work by other Native scholars. While he is occasionally too dismissive of non-Natives, he is also funny, subtle, and persuasive in writing.
