#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2019 HILARY WESTON WRITERS' TRUST PRIZE FOR NONFICTION

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2019 BY THE GLOBE AND MAIL • CBC • CHATELAINEQUILL & QUIRETHE HILL TIMESPOP MATTERS

A bold and profound meditation on trauma, legacy, oppression and racism in North America from award-winning Haudenosaunee writer Alicia Elliott.


In an urgent and visceral work that asks essential questions about the treatment of Native people in North America while drawing on intimate details of her own life and experience with intergenerational trauma, Alicia Elliott offers indispensable insight into the ongoing legacy of colonialism. She engages with such wide-ranging topics as race, parenthood, love, mental illness, poverty, sexual assault, gentrifcation, writing and representation, and in the process makes connections both large and small between the past and present, the personal and political—from overcoming a years-long battle with head lice to the way Native writers are treated within the Canadian literary industry; her unplanned teenage pregnancy to the history of dark matter and how it relates to racism in the court system; her childhood diet of Kraft Dinner to how systemic oppression is directly linked to health problems in Native communities.

With deep consideration and searing prose, Elliott provides a candid look at our past, an illuminating portrait of our present and a powerful tool for a better future.

Every North American should hear Alicia's words. She speaks to her own story, but also that of many other Indigeneous and BIPOC community members.

Loved it!

This book was a glimpse into a world I am unfamiliar with. It is tragic and at times hard to listen due to the subject matter but it is so important to know about stories like this so we can better support our neighbours dealing with poverty and the multigenerational effects of colonialism. I am glad I have read it. Thank you to the author for sharing her story.

a really beautiful written story that is very personal and sometimes hard to stomach. this writer looks at the hardships and love that comes from a family surviving mental health issues and their intertwined connections to colonial trauma.

nuanced look at mental health and colonial trauma

This is a book I would recommend to all Canadians.
It’s what we need to know and we’re never taught.

Good read
