Thomas King is one of North America's foremost Native writers, best known for his
novels, including Green Grass, Running Water, for the DreadfulWater mysteries, and
for collections of short stories such as One Good Story, That One and A Short History
of Indians in Canada. But King is also a poet, a literary and cultural critic, and
a noted filmmaker, photographer, and scriptwriter and performer for radio. His career
and oeuvre have been validated by literary awards and by the inclusion of his writing
in college and university curricula. Critical responses to King's work have been abundant,
yet most of this criticism consists of journal articles, and to date only one book-length
study of his work exists. Thomas King: Works and Impact fills this gap by providing
an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of all major aspects of King's oeuvre as well
as its reception and influence. It brings together expert scholars to discuss King's
role in and impact on Native literature and its processes of canonization and to offer
in-depth analyses of his multifaceted body of work. The volume will be of interest
to students and scholars of literature, English, and Native American studies, and
to King aficionados
