Summary
"In The Queerness of Native American Literature, Lisa Tatonetti recovers ties between two simultaneous renaissances of the late twentieth century: queer literature and Native American literature. Throughout, she argues that queerness has been central to Native American literature for decades, showing how queer Native literature and Two-Spirit critiques challenge understandings of both Indigeneity and sexuality."--Publisher's website.
