Narrated by Ussani Taylor and Megan Tooley.

"In this intimate collection, Amanda Peters, winner of the Andrew Carnegie Medal, melds traditional storytelling with beautiful prose to describe the dignity of the traditional way of life, the humiliations of systemic racism and the resilient power to endure. A young man returns from residential school only to realize he can no longer communicate with his own parents. A grieving mother finds purpose and healing on the front lines as a water protector. A nervous child dances in her first Mawi'omi. And in the Indigenous Voices Award-winning title story, a man living alone in the woods is visited by a doe who conjures memories of his sister. At times sad, at times disturbing, but always redemptive, the stories in Waiting for the Long Night Moon will remind you that where there is grief there is also joy, where there is trauma there is resilience and, most important, there is power"-- Back of container.
