Celia’s Song by Lee Maracle and narrated by Columpa Bobb is a stunning work of literature and certainly one that can be revisited. The book is told from the perspective of Mink, a seer, a shapeshifter. She is drawn to the Village of Celia, in Nuu’Chahlnuth territory on the West coast of Vancouver
The narration by Columpa Bobb is as meditative as the narrative and I was utterly entranced. The deep empathy of the narrator to the subject matter was truly beautiful to experience
Lee Maracle has a lilting, lyrical prose with a powerful message, blending history, fantasy and speculation. I am keen to read the previous book and then re-read this as I am sure hat the experience can only be enhanced further.
Whether audiobook or copy, this novel is exactly that, an experience and one to be treasured
Thank you to Netgalley, ECW Press Audio, the author Lee Maracle and narrator Columpa Bobb for this stunning ALC. My review is left voluntarily and all opinions are my own
