Bawaajigan: Stories of Power
Gord Grisenthwaite, Nathan Niigan Noodin Adler and Christine Miskonoodinkwe-SmithRanging from gritty to gothic, hallucinatory to prophetic, the reader encounters ghosts haunting residential school hallways and ghosts looking on from the afterlife, bead-dreamers, talking eagles, Haudenosaunee wizards, giant snakes, sacred white buffalo calves, spider’s silk, a burnt and blood-stained diary, wormholes, poppy-induced deliriums, Ouija boards, and imaginary friends among the many exhilarating forces that drive the Indigenous dream-worlds of today.
