Crevice: A Life Between Worlds

Crevice is a collection of 13 related essays, the winner of the 2024 Kenneth Johnston Nonfiction Book Award and published by Choeofpleirn Press. Through stories and reflection, the book explores bicultural belonging and identity, the role of language in identity, and the effects of colonization. It examines the author's settler heritage as the daughter of evangelical missionaries in the Navajo Nation––from an early age and continuing through her later work in Diné bilingual-bicultural education as an adult. Available everywhere books are sold.
