megan_prairierose 's review for:
Indian Horse
by Richard Wagamese
This is a book that every Canadian should read. A heartbreaking tale of family, residential schools, hockey, alcoholism and redemption.
This wasn't an easy book to read, when there are passages like this:
"When your innocence is stripped from you, when your people are denigrated, when the family you came from is denounced and your tribal ways and rituals are pronounced backward, primitive, savage, you come to see yourself as less than human. That is hell on earth, that sense of unworthiness. That's what they inflicted on us."
This book is raw and it tore my heart open.
Highly recommended read.
