HW for April 8: Leslie Marmon Silko, "Storyteller" (anthology, pp. 67-86)

 To situate "Storyteller" and the groundbreaking work of the same title that launched Leslie Marmon Silko as a major US writer, you might want to know a little about the emergent acknowledgment of native-American literature in the native-American Renaissance (a controversial though widespread term) here: https://nativeamericanlit.com/.

As you read "Storyteller", please take your time to comment on one or more of these topics:

- intertwined narratives
- Focalization
- Description of natural elements
- Dramatization of cultural mediation and conflict
