The first anthology of First Nations drama to be published in Canada, this volume includes seminal work by Spiderwoman Theatre, Daniel David Moses, Monique Mojica, Drew Hayden Taylor, Yvette Nolan, and Marie Humber Clements, and features previously unpublished plays by Tomson Highway, Maria Campbell, Floyd Favel Starr, and William Yellow Robe, Jr.

Based on the author's own life, the play's main character/narrator undertakes a dream journey to bring to light the men hidden in a collection of 700 family letters--letters from five brothers who fought in WWI. Not only does the writer step into the characters of these forgotten soldiers, but also into his own life as a child.

A beautifully penned story that paves a path to a mother's unspeakable pain.

A collection of contemporary Canadian monologues for women, intended for auditions, study or general interest and addressing themes of Adolescence, Body, Childhood Memories, Identity, Mothers, and Passion."A monologue must give voice to those who have been silenced. The speaker must urgently need to speak, to proclaim, to persuade, to incite, to inspire, to agitate, to fabricate, to contaminate or whitewash, to justify; the speaker needs approval, or absolution, or acclaim, or worship, or laughter or sympathy. The monologue can only happen if the speaker has an audience. The monologue is ultimately the electric interaction between the audience and the speaker."--from the introduction by Judith Thompson

A new play by Governor Gerneral Literary Award winner Brad Fraser.
