In this interview with author Tommy Orange (enrolled member of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma), Orange discusses his highly acclaimed debut novel There There. Orange talks about how he conceptualized his novel, his views on the limited representation of Native life in literature, and why engaging with historical memory in his book was necessary for telling a contemporary story about urban Native life.
