In the stark expanse of Northern Alberta, a queer Indigenous
doctoral student steps away from his dissertation to write a novel,
informed by a series of poignant encounters: a heart-to-heart with
fellow doctoral student River over the mounting pressure placed on
marginalized scholars; a meeting with Michael, a closeted man from
his hometown whose vulnerability and loneliness punctuate the
realities of queer life on the fringe. Woven throughout these
conversations are memories of Jack, a cousin caught in the cycle of
police violence, drugs, and survival. Jack's life parallels the
narrator's own; the possibilities of escape and imprisonment are
left to chance with colonialism stacking the odds. A Minor Chorus
introduces a dazzling new literary voice whose vision and
fearlessness shine much-needed light on the realities of Indigenous
survival.
