Linda LeGarde Grover will join Beagle and Wolf Books & Bindery on Saturday, June 22 at 12:00 p.m. for a conversation on her book A Song over Miskwaa Rapids: A Novel.
Linda LeGarde Grover weaves an intimate and complex novel of Mozhay Point and its people with A Song over Miskwaa Rapids. Margie Robineau, fighting for her family’s long-held allotment land, uncovers events connected to a long-ago escape plan, and the burial—at once figurative and painfully real—of not one crime but two. While Margie pieces the facts together, Dale Ann is confronted by her own tightly held secrets and the truth that the long ago and the now are all indelibly linked, no matter how much we try to forget.
"With its powerful, atmospheric descriptions of the natural world, A Song over Miskwaa Rapids resembles an Indigenous family saga in miniature, couching memory and mystery in a potent spirit world." —Foreword Reviews
"Filled with gripping prose, A Song Over Miskwaa Rapids is an engaging and thought-provoking read." —Northern Wilds
"A sprawling, poignant chronicle of struggle and survivance." —Kirkus Reviews
