Split Tooth by Tanya Tagaq

dark emotional reflective slow-paced

5.0

"Global warming will release the deeper smells and coax stories out of the permafrost. Who knows what memories lie deep in the ice? Who knows what curses? Earth's whispers released back into the atmosphere can only wreak havoc."

Definitely the most lyrically beautiful book I have read this year. I didn't want to leave.

You can tell from the sleeve that the publishers struggled to describe it, and I wonder if that is why it hasn't been anywhere near as popular as it deserves.

Some tough themes in here, including sexual abuse and addiction, for anyone who needs to take care.
