In the quiet courtyards across the hills of southeastern Bangladesh, the soft clack of the loom can still be heard. Threads of many colors twist and cross, creating not just fabric, but stories. In these threads live memories of rivers, forests, and hills—woven by Indigenous women who have carried this art through generations.

Tatuado con Espinas - Colectivo Asho’ojushi

Storytelling is an Indigenous way of knowing. A tradition rooted in listening as much as in narrating. Each year, writers bring vital stories to the world, honoring lessons, battles, and joys passed through kin and community. From searing poetry to thrilling fiction and gentle tales for children and families, these new books by indigenous authors illuminate the ever-deepening circularity of native storytelling. Every one is a testament to the resilience, humor, and imagination that keep traditions old and new very much alive.
