Joy Harjo, Poet Laureate of the United States and member of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, has a remarkable personal history to share. It's a bracing account of survival and creativity in spite of abuse and hardships—on individual as well as generational levels. Crazy Brave, focusing more on Harjo's early life, and Poet Warrior, bringing us through to current day, are both deeply moving and insightful, weaving poetry, history, and Indigenous spirituality into Harjo's "own individual soul story." Prepare for a profound journey!
