Home On Native Land
with Alicia Elliott, Katherena Vermette and Cherie Dimaline
Hosted by Shelagh Rogers
And Then She Fell is shocking, riveting, uncomfortable, gorgeous and visionary…. Elliott’s true gift to the reader is a new perspective on Indigeneity which is both humbling and earth-shattering.
The inimitable Shelagh Rogers hosts a conversation with the authors of three of the year’s most celebrated novels.
And Then She Fell by Alicia Elliott is a mind-bending story about Native life, motherhood and mental health that follows a young Mohawk woman who discovers that the picture-perfect life she always hoped for may have horrifying consequences.
The latest from Katherine Vermette, the award-winning and #1 bestselling author of The Break and The Strangers is The Circle, a poignant and unwavering epic told from a constellation of Métis voices that consider the fallout when the person who connects them all goes missing
VenCo, from Cherie Dimaline, the bestselling author of The Marrow Thieves and Empire of Wild, is a wickedly subversive, and deeply feminist novel of contemporary witches on the rise.
