The lyrical style gave the story a unique rhythm, but I wonder if that was a conscious choice to reflect Indigenous storytelling traditions or a personal artistic preference.

The book oscillates between moments of beauty and pain, which made me reflect on how resilience is portrayed amidst trauma. Was this tension intentional?

The authentic details added depth, and I’m curious whether real places and traditions influenced Belcourt’s writing or if they were fictionalized for narrative effect.
