Thunder Song by Sasha taqʷšəblu LaPointe

5.0

THUNDER SONG by Sasha taqwšəblu LaPointe is a beautiful collection of essays that is deeply moving, deeply personal, and deeply Indigenous. LaPointe owns being a Two-Spirit Coast Salish woman and reconciles with the way white settler colonialism has seeped its way in every part of her lineage, her experiences with sexuality and veganism, and her connection with the physical world. This is another subject matter heavy book, but LaPointe writes with such clarity especially when she intertwines stories of her great-grandmother’s legacy and her interconnectedness with nature that feels grounded. LaPointe herself narrates this one and she’s a very good storyteller, highly recommend!
