Christopher Felver's Tending the Fire celebrates the poets and
writers who represent the wide range of Native American voices in
literature today. In these commanding portraits, Felver's
distinctive visual signature and unobtrusive presence capture each
artist's strength, integrity, and character. Accompanying each
portrait is a handwritten poem or prose piece that helps reveal the
origin of the poet's language and legends. As the individuals share
their unique voices, Tending the Fire introduces us to the
diversity and complexity of Native culture through the authors'
generous and passionate stories. Felver's insightful epilogue
reminds us that "Native Americans today are as modern as the Space
Age, and each in their own way carries forth the cultural heritage
'from whence they came.' Their abiding legacy as the first people
of this continent has found its voice in the hard-won wisdom of
their art and activism. Let's learn from this belated opportunity
to look and listen to these Native voices."
