A collection. The pages reek with despair at the loss of Native American culture. With an Introduction by Jorge Luis Borges. Craig Strete, one of the few Native American SF authors, picked up three Nebula Award nominations for short SF, two of which are included in this collection of his excellent work. The television, an embodiment of the white man's control of mass culture, declares the Native American is a figment of the past, not of the present. Original authors such as Craig Strete, with distinct and diverse voices, who tackle tough themes such as oppression, the effects of technology, and Native American myth in a literary and experimental manner, are too often neglected in the grand narratives of SF’s past.
