Sinopsis

WINNER OF THE 2025 INDIGENOUS VOICES AWARD 
CBC BOOKS 'CANADIAN POETRY COLLECTIONS TO WATCH FOR IN 2024' 
CBC BOOKS 'BOOKS TO READ IN HONOUR OF THE NATIONAL DAY FOR TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION'The Sky Woman has returned to bring down the patriarchy!This book is about a poet who may or may not be going crazy, who is just trying to survive in Winnipeg, where Indigenous people, especially women, are being disappeared. She is talking to a crow who may or may not be a trickster, and who brings a very important message: Sky Woman has returned, and she is ready to take down the patriarchy.  This is poetry, prose and dialogue about the rise and return of the matriarch. It’s a call to resistance, a manifesto to the female self. Cree poet and broadcaster Rosanna Deerchild is an important voice for our time. Her poems – angry, funny, sad – demand a new world for Indigenous women.

Mary Ardery

Based on her experience as a wilderness guide for women in a substance-abuse treatment program, Mary Ardery’s visceral debut is set deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Asheville, North Carolina. These narrative-lyric poems chronicle a labor both physically and emotionally intense: bearing witness to campfire confessions, facing uphill climbs and frigid rivers and wildfires, reckoning with relapses and overdoses. Here is a nuanced exploration of intoxication and recovery, the ways we share and manage pain, and how our personal histories can haunt us but also lead us down transformative paths. Firmly grounded in time and place, part record and part elegy, this is a book for those who have been affected by addiction and all who have ever sought solace or redemption in nature.

When your world falls apart, where does hope hide? 
What if the breaking was never meant to destroy you — but to awaken you? 
In Awaken: Finding Hope Beyond Brokenness, poet and life coach Ítala Veloso shares a testimony in verse — written for every soul that's ever felt lost, unseen, or too broken to begin again. 
These poems are not polished prayers. 
They are raw honesty, battle cries, tear-stained revelations, and encounters with grace. 
Ítala walks with you from the depths of despair to the freedom of faith — reminding readers that healing, hope, and spiritual renewal are still possible, even in the darkest seasons. 
Her words are prayers in motion, carrying the ache of human pain and the healing of God's love — a poetic journey through heartbreak, surrender, forgiveness, and the miraculous rebirth that only love in Christ Jesus can bring. 
Awaken is a call to the lost, the broken, the weary, and the doubting: 
to remember who you are, whose you are, and that no valley is too deep for resurrection. 
Come as you are. You are not forgotten. You are not alone. You are already being made new. 
Awaken.

The Weary Blues

Langston Hughes

Langston Hughes is a widely celebrated African American writer and important leader of the 1920s Harlem Renaissance. Deeply inspired by the great poet Walt Whitman, Hughes’ own writings gave voice to the Black community in the American literary canon. His assertion that “I, too, sing America” echoes through history and continues to be a battle cry in the fight for fair representation and equality. 
 
The Weary Blues, published in 1926, was Hughes’ first collection of poetry. He was only twenty-four years old at the time, but his insights carry wisdom beyond his years. Hughes made his literary debut at the height of Jim Crow when racial segregation ran deep through American society. Through the pain and hardship, there is also an unshakable pride in his African American heritage. 
 
Enjoy the rich notes and rhythms of Hughes’ distinct “jazz poetry” style, brought to life in this extraordinary InAudio production.
