In Naomi Fontaine's 'Manikanetish', a young teacher's return to her remote Innu community transforms the lives of her students through the redemptive power of art, reminding us of the importance of hope in the face of despair. 'Manikanetish' was originally published in French and was a finalist for the Governor Generals Literary Awards and ICI-Radio Canadas Combat des livres. Fontaine is a member of the Innu Nation of Uashat and lives in Quebec City, QC.
