SIGNED BY KATHERENA VERMETTE on title page; Clean, tight unmarked; very small crease to bottom crease of two page; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; When Stella, a young Metis mother, looks out her window one evening and sees someone in trouble on the Break - a barren field on a isolated strip of land outside her house - she calls the police to alert them to a possible crime. In a series of shifting narratives, people who are connected with the violence - police, family, and friends - tell their personal stories leading up to that fateful night. Through their various perspectives a larger, more comprehensive story about the lives in this community and the after-effects of trauma emerges. Seeking understanding and strength, The Break shows the resiliency of Indigenous women, and the unwavering power of family love. Near Fine Soft cover House of Anansi Press 2018 Canada
