In 'Split Tooth' we are transported to a small Arctic town in the 70s. A girl knows joy, friendship and parents' love. She knows boredom, listlessness and bullying. She knows the tedium of the everyday world. The raw, amoral power of the ice and sky. The seductive energy of the animal world. She knows the impacts of alcohol, and violence at the hands of those she should be able to trust. She sees the spirits that surround her, and the immense power that eclipse’s all of us. Please note the book contains descriptions of sexual assault.
The author Tanya Tagaq is a renowned Inuk throat singer and novelist. Her work focuses on Indigenous issues so, this time we're meeting at Tea N Bannock, a restaurant serving indigenous and native cuisine. You're welcome to join even if you haven't read the book.
