Description
The offspring of an Ojibway mother and a white father whom he has never known, Drew Hayden Taylor has long addressed vexed issues of identity and the complicated relationship between Native people and whites with sharp insight and a frequently unsettling sense of humor. Carefully examining these writings, this collection analyzes Taylor's writing from both aboriginal and non-aboriginal perspectives. Contributors include Birgit Däwes, Jonathan R. Dewar, Kristina Fagan, Rob Appleford, Ric Knowles, and Monique Mojica.
