This novel deals with complex emotions among the characters and develops them until they feel vivid. Wilson's writing paints a lovely picture and I found it nearly impossible to put this book down and break the images her words built in my head. Highly recommend for folks looking to read more Indigenous fiction and understand more about the role of humans in the natural order.
