Andrew Chaikivsky has written a piece for Equire on Tim Barrus, aka “Nasdijj.”

Equire published a 3000-word article purported to be written by a Navaho in 1999. The article launched a minor literary career — until LA Weekly revealed the author’s true identity last January.

I’m not sure the new Esquire piece really answers the question “why” but it certainly adds some more color to the tale.
