Rose Okanese, a single mother with two kids, has been pushed into a corner by Rez citizens to claim some…
self-respect, and decides that the fastest way to do that would be for her to run the reserve's annual marathon. Though Rose hasn't run in twenty years, smokes and initially has little motivation, she announces her intention to run the race. But one strange and unforeseen outcome of her decision is that she will have to do battle with an old inadvertently conjured demon that feeds off the strength of women. She is a truly mean old spirit who can invade other women and have them do her bidding and in no time has the Rez in an uproar. As Rose discovers, the old demon has been unintentionally called forth by Rose's teen daughter, Sarah, which complicates Rose's life just a little more. Winner of the 2015 Saskatchewan Book Award for Fiction. 2014.

Enfermé dans un centre de désintoxication, Saul Cheval Indien touche le fond et il semble qu'il n'y ait plus qu'une…
seule issue à son existence. Plongé en pleine introspection, cet Ojibwé, d'origine Anishinabeg du Nord ontarien, se remémore à la fois les horreurs vécues dans les pensionnats autochtones et sa passion pour le hockey, sport dans lequel il excelle.

Avec empathie et perspicacité, Richard Wagamese brosse le portrait d'un homme broyé par son destin et, plus largement, d'une génération d'autochtones victimes de leur époque et du déclin de leur culture. 2017. Titre uniforme: Indian horse.
