Reviews

http: //www.buriedinprint.com/a-really-good-brown-girl-marilyn-dumont/"Marilyn Dumont articulates, touches and settles the nerve of Cree. The reader wanders through the patched quilt life of families, of communities, of relatives and of the Cree nation itself. Always, we are immersed in ancient Cree ways as expressed in Cree-borrowed English. Brilliantly and lyrically presented we are forever reminded that Cree culture, Cree people have not been eradicated, quite the contrary, through Dumont's that tongued belonging we celebrate the renaissance, the transformation and the continuum of the poetics, being and heroism of the Cree."--Lee Maracle, author of Bobbi Lee "Everywhere wind-blown leaves turnreveal acimowina to this story-sharershe brings reality into beingbrings the heart to the ear.Thank you Marilyn for these gifts."--Louise Bernice Halfe, Sky Dancer, author of Blue Marrow
