Next Time
There’s a Pandemic
V I V E K S H R AYA
Afterword by J.R. Carpenter
“During my first post-lockdown massage we had
the requisite chit chat about our lockdown experi-
ences. He gushed: ‘Oh man. It was so great. Every
day I woke up, drank coffee, read, rode my bike…’
This did sound pretty great. But it was nothing
like my own, anxiety-ridden ordeal.
Had I done the lockdown wrong?”
1
In Next Time There’s a Pandemic, artist Vivek Shraya reflects on how she might have
approached 2020 and the covid-19 pandemic differently, and how challenging
and changing pervasive expressions, attitudes, and behaviours might transform
our experiences of life in—and after—the pandemic. What might happen if,
rather than urging one another to “stay safe,” we focused instead on being caring?
What if, instead of striving to “make the best of it” by doing something, we
sometimes chose to do nothing? With generosity, Shraya captures the dissonances
of this moment, urging us to keep showing up for each other so we are better
prepared for the next time…and for all times.
v i v e k s h r a y a is an artist whose body of work crosses the boundaries of music,
literature, visual art, theatre, and film. Her best-selling book I’m Afraid of Men was heralded
by Vanity Fair as “cultural rocket fuel.” A seven-time Lambda Literary Award finalist, Shraya
lives in Treaty 7 territory, where she is Assistant Professor of Creative Writing at the
University of Calgary.

Foreword by Jan Hare
Troubling Truth and Reconciliation in
Canadian Education offers a series of critical
perspectives concerning reconciliation and
reconciliatory efforts between Canadian
and Indigenous peoples. Indigenous
and non-Indigenous scholars address both theoretical and practical aspects of 3
troubling reconciliation in education across various contexts with significant
diversity of thought, approach, and socio-political location. Throughout, the work
challenges mainstream reconciliation discourses. This timely, unflinching anal-
ysis will be invaluable to scholars and students of Indigenous studies, sociology,
and education.

The Fur Trader
From Oslo to Oxford House
EINAR ODD MORTENSEN SR.
with Gerd Kjustad Mortensen
Edited by Ingrid Urberg & Daniel Sims
The Fur Trader is a critical edition of Einar
Odd Mortensen Sr.’s personal narrative
detailing the years (1925–28) he spent as
a free trader at posts in Pine Bluff and
Oxford Lake in Manitoba during the
waning days of the fur trade. Mortensen’s
original narrative has been translated from
4 Norwegian to English, and supplemented with a scholarly introduction, thorough
annotations, a bibliography, and a reading guide. This additional material pres-
ents the author as a product of Norwegian culture at the time, and is intended
to guide the reader through a close reading of Mortensen’s interpretations of
the Indian Residential School system, the people he encounters, and Indigenous
participation in the First World War. Mortensen’s insights and experiences will
be of interest to scholars, students, and enthusiasts of the fur trade, and will also
make contributions to literary, Indigenous, and Scandinavian studies.

Blue Portugal & Other Essays
THERESA KISHK AN
Using the richness of braided essays,
Theresa Kishkan thinks deeply about the
natural world, mourns and celebrates
the aging body, interrogates and gently
contests recorded history, and explores
art and visual phenomenon. Gathering
personal genealogies, medical histories,
and early land surveys together with the
liminal spaces of memory and insights
from music, colour theory, horticulture,
and textile production, Kishkan weaves patterns and dangles loose threads, 5
welcoming readers to share her intellectual and emotional preoccupations. The
rivers of the author’s home province echo the venous system of her body. The indigo
powder she turns into dye shares a palette with entoptic phenomena. The title
essay recalls a wine she first drank in her grandmother’s homeland; another
dances with memories of mothering and the structure of Bach’s Partita No. 2 for
solo violin. With an intimate awareness of place and time, a deep sensitivity to
family, and a poetic delight in travel, local food and wine, and dogs, Blue Portugal
& Other Essays offers up a sense of wonder at the interconnectedness of all things,
revealing Kishkan as a virtuoso of her craft.
t h e r e s a k i s h k a n lives on the Sechelt Peninsula in British Columbia. She has
published more than a dozen books, including poetry, fiction, and collections of essays.

Arborophobia
NANCY HOLMES
Arborophobia, the latest collection by
award-winning poet Nancy Holmes, is a poetic
spiritual reckoning. Its elegies, litanies, and
indictments concern wonder, guilt, and grief
about the journey of human life and the state
of the natural world. When a child attempts
suicide and western North America burns and
the creep of mortality closes in, is spiritual
and emotional solace possible or even desir-
able? Answers abound in measured, texturally
6 intimate, and often surprising ways. The title sequence, named for a word that
means “hatred of trees,” sassily blurs the boundaries between human beings and
Ponderosa pines, reminding us how fragile our conceptual frameworks really are.
Another sequence responds to Julian of Norwich’s writing and call “to practise
the art / of letting things happen.” Saints’ lives interlace with our quotidian
experience, smudging connections between the spiritual and the earthly. Taking
a hard look at what we have done to this beautiful planet and to those we love,
Arborophobia is a companion for all who grapple with the problem of hope in
times of crisis.
n a n c y h o l m e s is an award-winning poet and editor, and Associate Professor in the
Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies at u b c Okanagan. She also collaborates on eco art

You Might Be Sorry
You Read This
MICHELLE POIRIER BROWN
You Might Be Sorry You Read This is a
stunning debut, revealing how breaking
silences and reconciling identity can
refine anger into something both useful
and beautiful. A poetic memoir that looks
unflinchingly at childhood trauma (both
incestuous rape and surviving exposure
in extreme cold), it also tells the story of
coming to terms with a hidden Indigenous
identity when the poet discovered her Métis heritage at age 38. This collection is 7
a journey of pain, belonging, hope, and resilience. The confessional poems are
polished yet unpretentious, often edgy but humorous; they explore trauma yet
prioritize the poet’s story. Honouring the complexities of Indigenous identity and
the raw experiences of womanhood, mental illness, and queer selfhood, these
narratives carry weight. They tell us “You need / only be the simple / expression
of the divine / intent / that is your life.” There is a lifetime in these poems.
m i c h e l l e p o i r i e r b r o w n is an internationally-published poet, performer, and
photographer. She is nêhiýaw-iskwêw and a citizen of the Métis Nation. A feminist activist
and retired federal treaty negotiator, Poirier Brown now lives in Lekwungen territory

Separation Anxiety
G AV IN BR AD L E Y
This poignant debut by Gavin Bradley explores
the emotional toll of different kinds of separa-
tion: from a partner, a previously held sense of
self, or a home and the people left behind. The
main narrative follows the deterioration of a
long-term relationship, interweaving poems
dealing with the loneliness of immigration
and the anxiety of separation from Northern
Ireland, the poet’s homeland. These personal
poems enter their stories through a variety of
8 characters and places, from dock builders to dogs, from shorelines to volcanoes,
to “mouths soft and humming like beehives.” Sections of the collection examine a
post-Troubles’ experience in Northern Ireland—evoking the conflict of growing
up with bombs and domineering Catholicism—tell grandfather stories, and show
a lasting love for the people, the language, and the land. Separation Anxiety ulti-
mately conveys a message of hope, reminding us that “we’ll be remembered for /
ourselves, and not the spaces we / leave behind.”

“Early on in Tiny Lights for Travellers, author Naomi Lewis admits she is a poor traveller.
She is, however, a master navigator of her own interior geography. In this quiet, humble, and
profoundly openhearted memoir, Lewis maps her family’s history, her relationship to faith, and
the loves she has both lost and gained.”
