Notă biografică
A preeminent practitioner of twentieth century literature, N. Scott Momaday was perhaps best known for having blazed a trail for contemporary Native American writers. A Pulitzer Prize winner and member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Momaday in many respects is a class unto himself. Momaday was Regents Professor of English at the University of Arizona. A popular speaker, he narrated the PBS series The West.
Recenzii
"It is a search and a celebration, a book of identities and sources....Out of ordinary materials—genealogy, tribal tales, memories of a boyhood spent in Oklahoma, at Ship Rock in the Navajo country and at the Jemez pueblo, where his parents taught school—he has built a mystical, provocative book." —Wallace Stegner, New York Times
"A Native American version of Roots . . . full of the sense of wonder that characterizes classic American literature." —Choice
"Graceful, lucid prose...[Momaday] is forever an Indian and the reader understands why." —Atlantic Monthly
"With the eye of a painter and the voice of a poet, Momaday vividly recreates a childhood world of color, sound, and experience played out against the backdrop of tribal tales and in the shadow of revered forebears. . . . An eloquent statement of this distinguished Native American author's search for identity." —Journal of Arizona History
