A review by bjyt
Indian Horse by Richard Wagamese
4.0
The first portion of the novel details the harrowing lives of children in residential school. But it's done like a list of atrocities, rather than building them into the characters or the plot.
But when Wagamese focuses on the hockey, it really comes to life. I never thought someone could describe a sport - namely hockey - and make it so captivating and believable.
The arc back to his life was heart wrenching and revealed so much about the devastation of the residential schools and the depravity of the Church, affecting generations of indigenous people.
