<p><b>Winner of the Milton Acorn People&#8217;s Poet Award</b></p><p>Employing Indigenous spirituality, black comedy, and the memories of her own childhood as healing arts, celebrated poet Louise B. Halfe &#8211; Sky Dancer finds an irrepressible source of strength and dignity in her people. <em>Bear Bones and Feathers</em> offers moving portraits of Halfe&#8217;s grandmother (a medicine woman whose life straddled old and new worlds), her parents (both trapped in a cycle of jealousy and abuse), and the people whose pain she witnessed on the reserve and at residential school.</p><p>Originally published by Coteau Books in 1994, <em>Bear Bones and Feathers</em> won the Milton Acorn People&#8217;s Poet Award, and was a finalist for the Spirit of Saskatchewan Award, the Pat Lowther Award, and the Gerald Lampert Award.</p><br>
