Sojourners and Sundogs: First Nations Fiction
by Lee Maracle
from Raincoast Books, Press Gang Publishers
Here is a new combined edition of Lee Maracle's best-loved works of fiction. True to the principles of First Nations oratory, the novel (Sundogs) and short stories (Sojourner's Truth and Other Stories) in this volume are layered with unresolved human dilemmas. Maracle writes with love and humor, whether she's telling the tragic story of a boy's attempt to escape residential school or offering an intimate look at one family's struggle during the Mohawk Warrior Society's defiant stand at Oka. These are stories of the heart -- daring and imaginative, crossing cultures and generations -- by a vital and visionary writer.

Daughters Are Forever
by Lee Maracle
from Raincoast Books, Polestar
This powerful novel about a woman's self-discovery reinforces Lee Maracle's stature as one of the most important First Nations writers in North America. The novel incorporates an innovative structure - one based on Salish Nation storytelling - to depict the transformation of Marilyn, a First Nations woman who is alienated from her culture, her family, and herself. By discovering her own culture's ways and listening to the natural world, Marilyn begins to heal her deep-rooted hurt and gradually become reconciled with her estranged daughters. Here is a moving work about First Nations people in the modern world, and the importance of courage, truth, and reconciliation.
