Summary
Poetry is Lindsay Marshall's way of telling stories, of speaking with others about things that matter to him. His heritage. His people. His life as a Mi'kmaw. For the reader, Clay Pots and Bones is a colourful journey from early days, when the People of the Dawn understood, interacted with and roamed the land freely, to the turbulent present and the uncertain future where Marshall envisions a rebirth of the Mi'kmaq. The poetry challenges and enlightens. It will, most certainly, entertain.
