"Finally! A queer recovery of Native literatures that challenges both straight and settler erasures of queer and Two-Spirit presence. In The Queerness of Native American Literature, Lisa Tatonetti not only restores a history of queer Native literature, but also revises the history of Native American Studies to show us its queer and feminist genealogies. Her critical attention to Maurice Kenney’s and Janice Gould’s work are enough to make this book central to Native American literary studies, but Tatonetti also gifts us with Indigenous Queer critical approaches that, no doubt, will change the future of Native American and Indigenous Studies. Tatonetti demonstrates that the entire field Native American literature is very queer story, indeed." —Qwo-Li Driskill, Oregon State University "A productive, early step in an effort to enrich and complicate the ways in which to reimagine Native American literature and study."—CHOICE "The Queerness of Native American Literature is a necessary book for historians of sexuality, indigeneity, and late twentieth-century literature, and it provides a valuable window onto complex historical intersectionalities."—Journal of American History "Tatonetti’s project is one that encourages us to challenge the boundaries of our disciplines and to ask about what texts we are not reading, or what readings we are not seeing in texts. A most welcome contribution that will undoubtedly inspire a range of discussions in the years to come."—The Canadian Journal of Native Studies
