Description
"This is a book of truth, difficult truth, real truth, beautiful truth." —Norma Dunning, Canadian Poetries
In this collection of poetry, powerhouse author David Groulx uses his deft and forceful wordplay. These Threads Become a Thinner Light takes readers into blisteringly honest reflections of survival and momentary redemptions of a hidden Indigenous world in the underbellies of Canada's major metropolises and small towns.
