Making Curriculum Pop

I read this fascinating article in The Writer's Chronicle The Fourth Wave in Native American Fiction but it is very paywalled (I read the print edition). That said the author, Erika Wurth wrote a similar article "The Fourth Wave" in Waxwing Journal

Some novels & authors that capture each wave...

1st Wave - anything written by a Native person after 1492 and prior to the Native American Renaissance

Popol Vuh: The Sacred Book of the Maya: The Great Classic of Centra... 

Authors Zitkala-Sa & D'Arcy McNickle

2nd Wave "The Native American Renaissance"

House Made of Dawn - N. Scott Momaday
Ceremony by Leslie Marmon Silko

Winter in the Blood by James Welch

3rd Wave

Eric Gansworth, David Treuer, Greg Sarris, Adrian C. Louis, Linda Hogan and Susan Power with Sherman Alexie and Louise Erdrich as the standouts.

4th Wave

Debra Magpie Earling - Perma Red
Stephen Graham Jones - The Fast Red Road
Toni Jensen - From the Hilltop
Linda LeGarde Grover - Road Back to Sweetgrass
