"Reluctance was matched with a pit in my stomach; once I joined,
anyone could randomly find me...did I really want to be found?"
Chloe, a successful movie reviewer and serial dater, finds herself
added as a friend by her first love. The one who left her at
seventeen standing with a note in her hand as he simply walked
away. Will she allow herself to open old wounds? Morgan, a loyal
stay-at-home mom and wife, discovers one of her husband's friends
is his very single and flirtatious ex-girlfriend from high school.
Will obsession and jealousy tear her solid marriage apart when she
hunts for the truth? Brynn, a lonely forty year-old living with her
two distant teenage children and workaholic husband, fights
temptation while revisiting the past with one of her friends. Will
her deception destroy her family? Three lives changed forever WITH
JUST ONE CLICK. Confirming a friend isn't as simple as it seems...
but do these women have more in common than just Facebook?
On a journey to uncover her family's story, Spotted Fawn travels
through time and space to reclaim connection to ancestors,
language, and the land-creating a path forward in this essential
graphic novel. In the dreamworld she bears witness to a mountain of
buffalo skulls. They stand as a ghostly monument to the slaughter
of the Plains bison to near extinction-- a key tactic to starve and
contain the Indigenous People onto reservations. On this path,
Spotted Fawn knows she must travel through her own family history
to confront the harsh realities of the past and reignite her
connection to her people and the land. Her darkroom becomes a
portal, and her photographs allow her glimpses into the lives of
her relatives over the course of four chapters of this book, which
follow the phases of the moon. Time and space become unlocked and
unfurl in front of her eyes. Guided by her ancestors, Spotted
Fawn's travels through the past allow her to come into full
face-like the moon itself. Adapted from the acclaimed stop-motion
animated film of the same name, written and directed by Amanda
Strong, Four Faces of the Moon brings the oral and written history
of the Michif, Cree, Nakoda and Anishinaabe Peoples and their
cultural link to the buffalo alive on the page. Deeply resonant and
beautifully rendered, this graphic novel retelling is essential
reading. Backmatter by Dr. Sherry Farrell-Racette (Michif), an
associate professor of Native Studies and Women's and Gender
Studies at the University of Manitoba, provides information on
Michif culture and history and the injustices of colonialism.
