Book
A beautiful rebellion / Rita Bouvier.
"This evocative new poetry collection speaks 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 and the weariness of trying to redress those wrongs. And, most poignantly, "a beautiful rebellion" reaches one hand back to Louis Riel and one hand forward to future Métis generations. The poems navigate losses that we all suffer when the world of our childhoods has altered irrevocably; they reveal the pain caused by residential schools and share despair at the lack of progress in social justice and self-determination. Rita Bouvier's work is intimate and insightful, written in inviting, open-hearted language that includes many Cree and Michif phrases and their translation." -- Back cover
