Burning in This Midnight Dream

About this book
"With fearlessly wrought verse, Halfe describes how the experience of residential schools continues to haut those who survive, and how the effects pass like a virus from one generation to the next. She asks us to consider the damage done to children taken from their families, to families mourning their children; damage done to entire communities and to ancient cultures"--Back cover.
