On her first book tour at the age of 26, Lee Maracle was asked a question from the audience, one she couldn't possibly answer at that moment. But she has been thinking about it ever since. As time has passed, she has been asked countless similar questions, all of them too big to answer, but not too large to contemplate. These questions, which touch upon subjects such as citizenship, segregation, labor, law, prejudice and reconciliation, to name a few, are the heart of My Conversations with Canadians.

A poetry audiobook with reflections on my life and powerful memories. Inspirational poems for all listeners.

Off My Chest is a poetry book that focuses on the importance of emotions and experiences. This book will appeal to those who have gone through hardships and those who may feel jaded or feel that what is happening to them is inexpressible, only to end up being misunderstood. Knowing our progress comes through experiences as the collective human race, which are very diverse, and both hateful and loving. Therefore, an outlet and coping mechanism - arguably, a form of therapy - is needed. That is what I present to you in the form of this manuscript.

Songs for My Father is a raw and honest collection of free verse poetry about the author’s relationship with her father. It chronicles how his anger and abuse left her emotionally trapped for many years, and how she found her way back into herself through her art. Katherine Lazaruk takes the listener through her early childhood experiences, drawing connections between how family, music, and learning shaped the writer and artist within her. It is a poignant window into the things that so often go unspoken, the elephants in the rooms of our families.
