I Tell You Now Reviews

An important addition to the library of Native American autobiography and a valuable contribution to literary scholarship.-World Literature Today * World Literature Today *
I do not know of any book quite like this one. Not only does it gather eighteen eloquent autobiographical essays in one place-a rarity in itself-but they are the life stories of some very significant Native American writers. The combination is unique. . . . On many levels, then, this is a book both enlightening and necessary.-Washington Post Book World * Washington Post Book World *
Rings with an urgency and honesty that promises to go far in setting the record straight about Native American experience in non-Indian dominated America.-Bloomsbury Review * Bloomsbury Review *
Like the cultures from which its many contributors come, this is a protean book-diverse, rich, and revealing at every turn. . . . For those who have yet to come into the literature of contemporary Native American writers, these inclusions offer a taste of what greater richness lies beyond.-Western Historical Quarterly * Western Historical Quarterly *
