Review Kathleen Adamson October 18, 2021: No book has all the answers, but Wagamese’s reflections present a hopeful and compassionate set of values. They feel like a nourishing meal for the heart, with all five flavours present—sweet, bitter, salty, sour, and something umami, important but hard to pin down. He flows through many topics—the importance of children’s education, his brutal encounters with the police, retellings of traditional Ojibwe tales that do not end with the European settlement of Canada, hilarious riffs on how to dress like an Indigenous person, his sadness at the lost traditions of Indigenous people in Canada
