Reading and Conversation
Waubgeshig Rice with Brent Bellamy

 

Waubgeshig Rice brings us Moon of the Crusted Snow, a thriller that strikes the reader first with the subtle, unremarkable line of catastrophe - the moment that life as we know it changes - and then brings home the realization that something terrible has happened. As the routine of their remote Anishinaabe community collapses, Waub's characters respond as best they can to the growing urgency of survival, and must adapt or perish. With Brent Bellamy, Waub talks about what happens after apocalypse and how embracing Indigenous traditional ways might help to save us all.
