A Radiant Curve information


First edition

A Radiant Curve is a compilation of poems and stories written by professor Luci Tapahonso.[1] It is one of six collective poetry works by Tapahonso.[1] A Radiant Curve is a work with basis in daily life, which is closely related to Luci Tapahonso's Navajo culture. These stories include memories of her family, generational teachings, and her perspective as a Navajo person living in modern times.[2] A Radiant Curve tries to emphasize storytelling in order to speak to the commonality of the shared human experience across cultures as evidenced by the double use of both Navajo and English.[3] The book was published in 2008 by The University of Arizona Press.[4]
