Description
"These poems speak with a fierce tenderness of many aspects of the poet's life: a childhood spent on the banks of the Churchill River, the death of a beloved one, the struggle to try to find forgiveness for wrongs done to her people and the weariness of trying to redress those wrongs. "a beautiful rebellion" reaches one hand back to Louis Riel and one hand ahead to future Mâetis generations." --
