This well-preserved copy of D’Arcy McNickle’s “THE HAWK IS HUNGRY” is a rare gem for collectors and readers alike. Published in the 1940s, this novel is a seminal work of the Native American Renaissance, a literary movement that sought to reclaim and celebrate Indigenous narratives. McNickle, a member of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes, crafted a poignant tale that explores the complexities of Native American identity and the challenges of navigating two worlds. Through vivid prose and richly drawn characters, he offers a profound meditation on cultural assimilation, displacement, and the enduring strength of Indigenous traditions. Widely acclaimed for its authentic portrayal of reservation life and its unflinching examination of the impact of colonization, “THE HAWK IS HUNGRY” remains a powerful and influential work, solidifying McNickle’s place as a pioneering voice in Native American literature. This volume, despite its absence of a dust jacket and minor wear, preserves the integrity of the text, inviting readers to immerse themselves in a literary masterpiece that resonates as strongly today as it did upon its initial publication.
