“I am still discovering who I am, the myth in me…I am part crow, part dragonfly, part squirrel, part bear. I kick at the sides of boxes out. I will not be pinned down. I am flying home in words and myths.”  –Gerald Vizenor, This Song Remembers

“…his texts are not the end, but the means. They invite the reader to be a party to discovery.” –Kimberly Blaeser, Gerald Vizenor: Writing in the Oral Tradition

“Gerald Vizenor combines ancient American storytelling with space-age technique.” –Ishmael Reed
