It thus becomes paramount to examine the extent to which the TRC's core principles of truth-telling, restorative justice, and reconciliation engage in productive dialogue with the settler-colonialcontext of Canada and, particularly, with Indigenous philosophies and epistemologies. \u003cem\u003eGood Medicine Stories\u003c\/em\u003e does exactly that through the lens of ? fiction. Interweaving Indigenous, settler-colonial, trauma, and gender studies on the one hand and intersecting literary, political, historical, and cultural approaches on the other, \u003cem\u003eGood Medicine Stories\u003c\/em\u003e explores the capacities of Indigenous ?fiction for challenging and amplifying the work carried out by the Canadian TRC. Through analysis of a unique selection of Indigenous contemporary literary texts that were produced during and after the completion of the Canadian Commission, the book shows the role of ? fiction in keeping the dialogue on truth, justice, and reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples open and relevant to our present and our future. It also demonstrates the role of Indigenous ?fiction in foregrounding Indigenous healing, spiritual regeneration, and resurgence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francesca Mussi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1835536735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781835536735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liverpool University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Francesca Mussi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46140926525695,"sku":"9781835536735","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_755e8c8e-5c7d-4490-9b7f-d08edcafdbf8.jpg?v=1726597430","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/good-medicine-stories-francesca-mussi-9781835536735","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
