This anthology of dark tales celebrates stories of Indigenous peoples’ survival and imagination, and features poems and short stories from emerging and established authors, such as Kelli Jo Ford, Kate Hart, Brandon Hobson, Tommy Orange, Mona Susan Power, Morgan Talty, and D.H. Trujillo. Edited by Shane Hawk and Theodore C. Van Alst Jr., the introduction by Blackfoot Native American author Stephen Graham Jones contextualizes the stories of ghosts, curses, hauntings, monstrous creatures, family legacies, and more. “For these next 392 pages, let these twenty-six writers take you by the hand, lead you into the darkness at the heart of—let me put some quotation marks around it—‘America,’” writes Jones.
