The Wolf at Twilight - THE MOVIE!
On Saturday, the 17th of April, in front of an audience of over 700, Kent was awarded the 2010 Minnesota Book Award in the field of memoir and creative non-fiction for his most recent work, The Wolf at Twilight: An Indian Elder's Journey through a land of Ghosts and Shadows. This is the second time Kent has won the Minnesota Book Award. The first was in 1995 for Neither Wolf nor Dog. He has also been selected as a finalist on three other occasions.
After winning the award, Kent commented, "I didn't realize how much this award would mean to me. I think over the years I've seen the award become more and more competitive and significant. Minnesota is a state with a great literary tradition and many wonderful writers. It just hit me this time how truly humbling it is to be chosen as one of the best of a great group of creative artists.
I have to admit I was quite surprised to win the award for The Wolf at Twilight. I continue to confound critics with the uncategorizable nature of my work. The publisher originally submitted the book as fiction in order to head off criticism about the degree of invention it contained. But the Book Awards people, after considering it, contacted us to discuss whether it had been miscategorized and actually should be in "creative non-fiction," which is meant to include works that contain "a significant amount of personal material and/or imaginative reworking."
When the decision was finally made to place The Wolf at Twilight in the creative non-fiction category, I assumed that the problematic nature of the work would cause the judges to shy away from it. I know that if I had been a judge, I would have been scratching my head, saying, "What is this? It's neither fish nor fowl. Or, to put it another way, it's neither wolf nor dog."
Thank you again to all of you who believe in me and value my writing. I'll always do my best to earn your trust by creating works that speak to and from the heart and shine a light on the complex mystery of the human experience.
Again, my thanks to all of you.
Kent
