Orion Reviews EFFIGIES: An Anthology of New Indigenous Writing, Pacific Rim, 2009
Friday, January 22, 2010 at 10:41AM Fellow IAIA Alums dg nanouk okpik and Cathy Rexford are included in this dazzling anthology.
"THE NONHUMAN WORLD doesn’t speak our language. At least not here, not now. Thus poetry can be an act of translation, and reading poetry an act of immersion. In every poem, language—and the world—is further illuminated. We’re taught how to listen, how to see. In Effigies, four voices emerge to shatter our perceptions about the world. Cathy Tagnak Rexford, dg nanouk okpik, Brandy Nalani McDougall, and Mahealani Perez-Wendt bring us alchemical dispatches from the far reaches of America: Hawaii and Alaska."
