Abstract
"It's a book of conversations -- interviews with nine Indigenous writers who work in Canada. All have been influenced by colonization and are surrounded by discourses of Indigenization, reconciliation, appropriation, and representation, and all are swept up in the growth of Indigenous publishing and literary studies. The conversations centre on writers' concerns, critiques, and craft, and how they navigate the challenge of storying their communities in politically charged terrain. Moreover, the book considers the pedagogical dimensions of stories, serving as an Indigenous literary and education project."--
