Description
Exercises in Lip Pointing is a new collection of poems by respected First Nations writer, Annharte. She uses oral sounds and written signs to probe and prod the reader, to ask the right questions, to lay bare the contradictions and delights in the serendipities of her experience. She makes us laugh, cry, and learn.
