  • Christy Jordan-Fenton

0 ratings

Looks at the experiences of a young Inuit girl returning from a residential religious school, where she is not recognized by her mother and is seen as an outsider.

Margaret's years at school have changed her. She has forgotten her language and the skills to hunt and fish. She can't even stomach her mother's food. Her only comfort is in the books she learned to read at school. The coauthor is Margaret Pokiak-Fenton.
