- Summary
- This collectively authored volume celebrates a group of Native critics performing community in a lively, rigorous, sometimes contentious dialogue that challenges the aesthetics of individual literary representation. Bringing twelve distinguished authors into conversation, Reasoning Together is an interactive work. Each essay comments on the others so that contributions derive added strength from their companion pieces.
