It thus becomes paramount to examine the extent to which the TRC’s core principles of truth-telling, restorative justice, and reconciliation engage in productive dialogue with the settler-colonialcontext of Canada and, particularly, with Indigenous philosophies and epistemologies. \u003cem\u003eGood Medicine Stories\u003c\/em\u003e does exactly that through the lens of ¬ fiction. Interweaving Indigenous,settler-colonial, trauma, and gender studies on the one hand and intersecting literary, political, historical, and cultural approaches on the other, \u003cem\u003eGood Medicine Stories\u003c\/em\u003e explores the capacities of Indigenous ¬fiction for challenging and amplifying the work carried out by the Canadian TRC. Through analysis of a unique selection of Indigenous contemporary literary texts that were produced during and after the completion of the Canadian Commission, the book shows the role of ¬ fiction in keeping the dialogue on truth, justice, and reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples open and relevant to our present and our future. It also demonstrates the role of Indigenous ¬fiction in foregrounding Indigenous healing, spiritual regeneration, and resurgence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liverpool University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":57338151534936,"sku":"9781805969150","price":38.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781805969150.jpg?v=1779307231","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/good-medicine-stories","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
