Poetry. Alongside the rise of Native American writers such as Sherman Alexie and Louise Erdrich, writers like Diane Glancy have been quietly expoloring other possiblities for Native American writing. Infused with a religious sensibility, peopled by the characters of the Bible, this is prose with the elevation and resonance of poetry. Diane Glancy is the author of the dramatic collection WAR CRIES (Holy Cow), IRON WOMAN (New Rivers), and numerous other books available from SPD.
