Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. More than twenty years after its publication in 1991, Leslie Marmon Silkos monumental novel Almanac of the Dead continues to disconcert, move, provoke, and outrage readers. In a work that is overtly and often uncomfortably political, Silkos overflowing cast of characters includes representatives from a range of cultures and communities who are united by common experiences of dispossession, disenfranchisement, exploitation, and poverty. Clearly, Silkos depiction of a social uprising that draws together the indigenous Peoples Army of the Americas and the American Army of the Homeless triggeredand was designed to triggera range of reactions among readers and critics alike.Howling for Justice actively engages with both the literary achievements and the politics of Silkos text. It brings together essays by international scholars reacting to the novel while keeping in mind its larger concern with issues of social justice, both local and transnational. Aiming both to refocus critical attention and open the book to a broader array of readers, this collection offers fresh perspectives on its transnational vision, on its sociocultural, historical, and political ambitions, and on its continued relevance in the twenty-first century. The essays examine and explain some of the key points that readers and critics have identified as confusing, problematic, and divisive. Together, they offer new ways to approach and appreciate the text.The book concludes with a new, never-before-published interview in which Silko reflects on the twenty years since the novels publication and relates the concerns of Almanac to her current work. Almanac of the Dead is a demanding, polarizing, and unique novel. Howling for Justice offers a fresh collection of essays by international scholars that examine and explain some of the book's key themes in new and useful ways. Included is a never-before-published interview with Leslie Marmon Silko. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
