Kia ora all,


This month's book was selected from this year's Women's Prize shortlist a list which always provides some great reads.

Louise Erdrich is the author of 28 works of fiction, non-fiction, poetry and children's books and was awarded the Pulitzer prize in 2021 for her novel The Night Watchman.  She is a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians and much of her work explores her Native American heritage.

The Sentence by Louise Erdrich

"a ghost story, a love letter to the written word, an exploration of Indigenous identity, an urgent response to a volatile and cataclysmic world. At once brutally realistic and weirdly metafictional, it burns with moral passion, brims with humour, and captivates with its striking and irresistible voice "
    - Priscilla Gillman, Boston Globe Review
