  • <p>More than twenty years after its publication in 1991, Leslie Marmon Silko’s monumental novel <em>Almanac of the Dead</em> continues to disconcert, move, provoke, and outrage readers. In a work that is overtly and often uncomfortably political, Silko’s overflowing cast of characters includes representatives from a range of cultures and communities who are united by common experiences of dispossession, disenfranchisement, exploitation, and poverty. Clearly, Silko’s depiction of a social uprising that draws together the indigenous People’s Army of the Americas and the American Army of the Homeless triggeredーand was designed to triggerーa range of reactions among readers and critics alike.</p> <p><em>Howling for Justice</em> actively engages with both the literary achievements and the politics of Silko’s text. It brings together essays by international scholars reacting to the novel while keeping in mind its larger concern with issues of social justice, both local and ...

  • <p>Leslie Marmon Silko's 1991 novel <em>Almanac of the Dead</em> is a profound and challenging analysis of late capitalist society in America and more widely, and the ways in which powerful minority elites ensure that their power is never challenged nor shared, through the complicit discourses of imperialism, patriarchy, religion, medicine, science and technology. <em>Almanac</em>'s exploration of multiple forms of dispossession and resistance is most fully embodied in the two Armies of Justice, who are devoted to overturning oppression in all forms and to the restoration of social and economic justice. Reading <em>Almanac</em> in the light of the global economic recession of 2008, this study assesses the ways in which <em>Almanac</em>'s vision of oppressive capitalism continues to have absolute relevance. Perhaps most importantly, this study provides a groundbreaking reading of <em>Almanac</em> for the 21st century, comparing Silko's activist armies with recen...
