INSCRIBED BY JOE WELSH on acknowledgements page; Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to corners; otherwise minimal wear; Joe Welsh irreverently and poignantly recreates the forties, fifties and sixties in around Lebret, SK. His ear for voice and his deprecating homespun portraits paradoxically intensify his loyalty to his people - the Metis. Enriched throughout with the relentless stream-of-consciousness, the writer merges vignette, poem, and dramatic monologue into a form that is unique in its authentic language and local colour.
