As American Indian writers frequently remind their readers, storytellers wield formidable power to affect the earth and its inhabitants. This is the medicine power that inheres in tribal expression such as chants, prayers, and ceremonial rituals. Leslie Marmon Silko innovates literary genres to create a uniquely effective medicine power. When Silko's Storyteller first appeared in 1981, critics were baffled by this complex text. Today it is a canonical work in the study of American Indian literature. The essays collected in this book, addressing both the original edition of Storyteller and the 2012 revision, use the growth of understanding of Native American literature in general and of Silko's work in particular to unpack this fascinating work and its critical reception over the years.

Leslie Marmon Silko's Ceremony: The Recovery of Tradition is a study of the embedded texts that function as the formal and thematic backbone of Leslie Marmon Silko's 1977 novel. Robert M. Nelson identifies the Keresan and Navajo ethnographic pretexts that Silko reappropriates and analyzes the many ways these texts relate to the surrounding prose narrative.
