Reviews

Within the stories [included in the book] lie accounts of home seeking that paint an important picture of agency, Indigenous home, and the ways that many Indigenous lives are unrecognized and unsupported through dominant social policy approaches. A key strength of the book is that it challenges southern, urban, and non-Indigenous peoples to face what Christensen terms the discomfort of positionality, and to not turn away from the spiritual homelessness of Dene people... Summing Up: Recommended. -- G. Bruyere, University College of the North * CHOICE *
