The first-ever monograph dedicated to contemporary Choctaw authors, written by a Choctaw and Pawnee scholar.
The first-ever monograph that focuses solely on Choctaw authors, Imagining Choctaw explores how four writers—LeAnne Howe, Louis Owens, D. L. (“Don”) Birchfield, and Steven Paul Judd—imagine and assert themselves as Choctaw individuals and envision Choctaw communities and nationhood, all within a social and political system designed for their eradication. Their styles, aesthetics, and concerns differ, which results in a complex, multifaceted image of Choctaw that challenges the structures of US colonial settlement. Imagining Choctaw contributes to Native American literary studies as the first monograph focused on Choctaw literature. This book will serve as a core text in Native literature studies for years to come and is a must-read for anyone serious about contemporary Native literature.
