Kihiani : a memoir of healing / Susan Aglukark and Andrea Warner.

Aglukark, Susan, 1967- (author.). Warner, Andrea, (author.).

Summary:

"Born in Fort Churchill, Manitoba, but raised in Arviat, a predominantly Inuit community on the western edges of Hudson Bay, Susan and her six siblings grew up in a humble but loving home. But while living in Rankin Inlet, when she was eight years old, Susan's life was disrupted by a life-changing event, a distinct separation that created a schism inside her for many years and from which she continues to heal. At fifteen, she started writing poems that spilled out of her, and when Susan had the choice to leave her community, she grabbed it like a lifeline. Eventually, Susan was approached by a producer at CBC who was making a compilation album of Arctic artists and years later signed with a major label for her third album, This Child. The disruption and milestones, the turmoil and joy, the devastation and healing--this is Susan Aglukark's story of discovering her Inuk self."-- Provided by publisher.
