Description
Richard Wagamese's latest collection of stories invites readers to accompany him on his travels, exploring how stories shape us, empower us, and change our lives. Grouped around four essential principles Ojibway traditional teachers sought to impart - humility, trust, introspection, and wisdom - these tales are woven from the author's own experiences, offering warmth, wisdom, and generosity. From learning from a grade five teacher about Martin Luther King, to finding meaning in an eagle feather, Wagamese's stories demonstrate the power of storytelling. The land serves as his guide, and he finds that true home means not only community but conversation - good, straight-hearted talk about important things. Every voice matters, and these pages offer a chance to hear one another's stories. We all need to tell our own stories, Wagamese says, and in this collection, he shares his own with warmth and insight.
