Let’s talk about Indian romance novels — or so goes the title of a recent piece in High Country News by Indigenous journalist Taylar Dawn Stagner.
In it, she writes about her love of the sometimes corny, sometimes raunchy genre — and how a boom of Native American-themed romance novels that were popular not all that long ago made her think twice.
It all started in a supermarket book aisle where she saw novel covers featuring white men in feather headdresses and unconvincing long black wigs. The Show spoke with Stagner about it.
