This poetry collection feels very raw, honest and personal. Like getting a unfiltered glimpse into someone else’s life.

Kitotam by John McDonald
Is elegiac
This is a poetic and educational collection. Focusing on his indigenous experience and his relation to society, the residential system, famous poets and life in general.
I certainly enjoy McDonalds voice, one that I had yet to hear.
This book is for anyone who enjoys poetry and being challenged on their views.

Liked the style of line breaks and easy flow. The poems at the end felt a bit less put together than the start.

Breathtaking and heartbreaking collection of poems by indigenous poet John McDonald. A must read for all Canadians.
