Routledge Native American Literature: Towards a Spatialized Reading

Explore a fresh perspective on the Native American literary Renaissance. This scholarly work examines the diverse and flourishing canon of novels written in American English by Native American and mixed-blood authors since 1968. While these works are highly significant, they often remain outside the broader American literary canon. This book addresses that gap by offering an original approach to contemporary storytelling. Through a study of space and spatialized aesthetics, the text provides a compelling way to understand how these authors shape their narratives. By considering Native American literature within a modernist framework, the author provides a persuasive analysis of how geography and space function in these texts. This is an essential resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the evolution of American literary theory and transnational perspectives.
