"A selection of poetry by Marilyn Dumont. Selections span her entire career, from her first collection, the now-classic A Really Good Brown Girl (1996), to that tongued belonging (2007) as well as previously uncollected poems. A Métis related to Gabriel Dumont, Marilyn Dumont through her poetry takes the reader through a range of personal and historically connected experiences grounded in emotional truth. "To understand Marilyn Dumont's work is to understand Métis culture and history," writes Armand Garnet Ruffo in his thoughtful introduction. Now readers can experience the essential work of this essential Canadian poet in a single volume."-- Provided by publisher.
