“I am here / this pen to paper / proves it yet again.” So writes Joseph Dandurand, First Nations man in midlife, survivor of violence and abuse, man recovering from addictions, father, lover, man still standing. Dandurand writes out of deep love and commitment to the land, to his ancestors, to his people, to his kids, who “grow up without abuse.” “Hands down, Joseph Dandurand is one of my all time favourite writers. This collection is a bareknuckle brawl of lust and longing. Good Lord—what a voice!!!!” —Richard van Camp “How does the Romantic keep on if he’s a contemporary First Nations guy? Like the poet Dandurand. There’s an honesty that gets bare bones scary in some of these free verse poems. “but I rage /and this is the same poem /over and over /repeated /to an empty page” He writes about the woman or women, about being an Indian on a reserve, about heritage and bad histories and children, and about his own troubled mid-life, but thanks to the clarity, often irony of his vision, our awkward humanity speaks through.” —Daniel David Moses
