elizabethlk's review against another edition
4.0
3.5 stars.
Indianland features some incredibly powerful poems about the Oka crisis, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, residential schools, and forced sterilizations that make it a hard but necessary read. She also touches on equally powerful and important stories about family and community. I did struggle a bit with the form, which was definitely not my preferred style, but it was worth working through for the content. I expect that those who prefer poetry in these forms will find the content has even more power and meaning than I found.
Recommended.
