Organizers of the Big Read Tucson event encourage children and adults to read the same book and take part in a gathering to discuss the topics explored.
Bill Finley Special to the Arizona Daily Star To suggest that Arizona poet Natalie Diaz offers a unique perspective puts a lot of pressure on those poor six letters in the word “unique.”
The program will be free and open to the public, with a variety of activities celebrating the power of storytelling and poetry when sharing cultural histories. Big Read gatherings have been scheduled in libraries, schools and other local gathering spots through April. Clearly, Diaz’ perspective is unique. Not only was she raised on the Fort Mojave Reservation, she has returned to the Mojave Valley to live.
The collection closes with “Grief Work.” In it, Diaz and her partner submerge themselves in the river. When they emerge, they feel “clean, and good.”
