A young Métis man searching for his missing father finds himself arguing with a dying glacier in this novel about the burdens and blessings of inheritance.
An impressionistic road trip and a Métis family story ... Robbie’s growth during this journey, and the novel’s redemptive end, make this inventive, layered tale one worth the telling, and the reading.
Underdeveloped ... The material is thought-provoking, but the novel is marred by slipshod storytelling, including myriad continuity errors. This one doesn’t quite come together.
