Add to basketOffering: N. Scott Momaday. Angle of Geese And Other Poems. Boston: David R. Godine, 1974. This copy is VG -- slight tilt to spine as well as a minuscule bump -- bound in patterned cloth with printed paper spine and cover labels. N. Scott Momaday Pulitzer Prize winner, poet, painter, and member of the Kiowa tribe stands as one of the towering literary voices of the 20th century. His landmark novel House Made of Dawn (1968) earned him the Pulitzer and helped launch the Native American Renaissance in literature. But Momaday s influence goes far beyond fiction: his essays, verse, and oral storytelling traditions continue to blur the lines between myth and memory, landscape and language. With a style that s both austere and richly evocative, Momaday has dedicated his life s work to honoring Indigenous identity, cultural survival, and the sacredness of the land. Published in 1974 by David R. Godine as number 5 in the First Godine Poetry Chapbook Series, Angle of Geese and Other Poems showcases Momaday s poetic gifts in a finely printed, clothbound volume a striking presentation for a chapbook. Designed by Carol Schloss, the book features eleven poems that range from deeply personal elegies to sweeping reflections on nature and heritage. The title poem originally appeared in Southern Review, and selections were first published in New Mexico Quarterly and Sequoia. A beautifully produced early work from one of America s most vital literary figures.
