Beskrivning

★ [Akiwenzie-Damm's] luminescent prose in this book dances "like jingle dress dancers," and is somehow still compressed to shining perfection - Publishers Weekly, Starred ReviewIn the Anishnaabe language and worldview, stones are alive, infused with life force or spirit. Although many of the stories are about loss, under that surface they are alive, celebrating the beauty and preciousness of life.—Kateri Akiwenzie-DammIn these 14 unique stories, Kateri Akiwenzie-Damm takes on complex and dangerous emotions, exploring the gamut of modern Anishinaabe experience. Through unforgettable characters, these stories—about love and lust, suicide and survival, illness and wholeness—illuminate the strange workings of the human heart.
