Discusses Wandra Koolmatrie's autobiography, My Own Sweet Time (1994), later revealed as a fiction written by Leon Carmen. 'In this paper, I want to map the range of responses to Carmen's hoax to get a sense of the cultural anxieties that such events generate, and the complexity of the issues at stake.
