One of the best books I've read in the last few years. I finished reading it a few weeks ago and still keep thinking about it. The descriptions are stunningly rich, and I loved learning about traditional medicines and Anishinaabe traditions. Really important read considering how systemic anti-Indigenous racism continues to affect indigenous people and the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls crisis.
