This is wonderful though horrifying near-future exploration of the connected disasters of anti-Indigenous racism and oppression and climate change. The characters attempt to stay connected to their cultural and language in a dystopian world which has continued to follow the genocidal and destructive path that has been set by Canadian settlers' and government's past and present acts against the land and its Indigenous peoples. The book is a reflection on family and found family, culture, tradition, and reconnection, navigating the natural world and society while under threat. It deals painfully with loss and grief, but also hope, love, and reunion. There are times I found it a tad predictable, but overall it is a very strong work of forging an Indigenous future despite colonial destruction.
