Outstanding Contemporary Native American Poetry,
By
This review is from: Where Clouds are Formed (Sun Tracks) (Paperback)
Ofelia Zepeda offers another collection that reveals once again the cultural and creative genius that earned her a MacArthur Award. Unlike many contemporary Native American poets and writers, Zepeda mixes English and her native tongue, Tohono 'O'odham, a Uto-Aztecan language spoken in present day Arizona and Sonora, Mexico. In addition to being the author of a number of books of poetry, Zepeda has also written a fine language learning texts for her native language, one which I personally have used for many years in my courses in linguistics at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. Anyone interested in the Native American experience, the American Southwest, or the art of poetry itself should take the time to read this, her latest work. It can unlock a whole new way of looking at the world we all live in and share.
