Native author Morgan Talty
@Morgan_J_Talty Writer / pαnawάhpskewi from the Penobscot Indian Nation / NIGHT OF THE LIVING REZ out now from @tin_house
reviews:
While soaked in pain and broken promises, Night of The Living Rez
delivers with a grace and dignity on par with the writings of Craig
Lesley, Dawn Dumont, James Welch and Joseph Dandurand. Morgan Talty
delivers on so many levels and proves that this is why Indigenous
Literature continues to be its own unique and sacred blessing. I loved
this book. Loved it. And I can't wait to see what Morgan Talty does
next. I am a fan for life. Mahsi cho, Morgan!--Richard Van Camp, author
of The Lesser Blessed
A collection of stories set in a Native
community in Maine, Talty's book centers questions of what it means to
be Penobscot today--what it means to live through and reckon with
historical tragedies. Talty grapples with such complicated inheritances
with tenderness and humor, with characters ranging from a boy who finds
an old curse in a jar to a grandmother struggling with Alzheimer's.--

BEST QUOTE EVER
"Printed books usually outlive bookstores and the publishers who brought them out. They sit around, demanding nothing, for decades. That's one of their nicest qualities—their brute persistence." - author Nicholson Baker
