Drawing from Wagamese’s essays and columns, along with preserved social media and blog posts, this beautifully designed volume is a tribute to Wagamese’s literary legacy.


 

“Treasure these words. Honour his thoughts. But don’t read it too fast. Soak it in. Enjoy every morsel. Linger on each page because every paragraph has nuggets of understanding. Lines of wisdom. Stories to appreciate.”


–Drew Hayden Taylor, from the introduction.

“...[Wagamese is] a key figure in the contemporary Indigenous literary renaissance.”
