Ã2014., Adult, Gaspereau Press Call No: IND 811.6 J86g Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "'Each generation must make their own / journey through a thick terrain' starts Generations Re-merging, a collection of poems which explores the complex tangle of intergenerational relationships and cultural issues encountered by a Mikmaw woman in the modern context, 'where every moment / is the loss of something.' Alert to the fragility of community and culture, and to the pervasive threats against the natural and social environments which have traditionally fostered them, Shalan Joudry writes with lucidity of the challenge of confronting these global issues personally on her home ground, and of honouring the hope of past generations by renewing it in the present."--From publisher.

[2015]., Adult, Breakwater Call No: IND 811.6 C192s Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "Shannon Webb-Campbell's Still No Word seeks the appearance of the self in others and the recognition of others within the self. Patient, searching, questioning, and at times heartbreaking -- these poems reveal the deep past within the present tense and the interrelations that make our lives somehow both whole and unfinished. And though Webb-Campbell is political at times, this is not politics for the sake of politics: here, it's a matter of the human heart. Ranging from reflective to angry, from sensual to humourous, her poetry inhabits that mercurial space between the public and the private -- a remarkably accomplished debut collection. Shannon Webb-Campbell is a poet, writer, and journalist of mixed Aboriginal ancestry. This is her first collection of poems. She lives in Halifax"--Provided by publisher.

-- Totem poles and railroads2016., General, ARP Books Call No: IND 811.54 R724t Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: "Succinctly defines the 500-year-old relationship between Indigenous nations and the corporation of Canada. In this, her fifth poetry collection, Janet Rogers expands on that definition with a playful, culturally powerful and, at times, experimental voice. She pays honour to her poetic characters - real and imagined, historical and present day - from Sacajawea to Nina Simone. Placing poetry at the centre of our current post-residential school/present-day reconciliation reality, Rogers' poems are expansive and intimate, challenging, thought-provoking and always personal. Janet Rogers is a Mohawk/Tuscarora writer from the Six Nations territory, living as a guest on Coast Salish territory since 1994. She is a recording artist, former Poet Laureate of Victoria, the University of Northern British Columbia Writer-in-Residence for 2015 and the Ontario College of Art and Design NIGIG Visual Culture Visiting Artist in 2016."--Provided by publisher.
