SUMMARY:Indigenous Literatures Book Club: Winter Counts
DESCRIPTION:The Indigenous Literatures Book Club focuses on work by indigenous writers from around the world.\nHosted by Tara McGowan-Ross\, a Mi’kmaq multidisciplinary artist and writer\, the meetings will take place every 4-6 weeks and are open to all.\nFor our next meeting\, we will gather virtually on October 28th at 7pm to discuss WINTER COUNTS by David Heska Wanbli Weiden. \nWhere and How Can I purchase the book? Via our webstore of course: http://mtl.drawnandquarterly.com/posts/webstore-faq\nWe Ship Canada-wide & deliver to some postal codes near the store in Montreal! \nBy purchasing your book at Librairie Drawn & Quarterly you help support events like this one\, independent publishing and retailing\, our neighborhood\, and authors both local and from around the world who depend on independent bookstores for their livelihood. Your support is appreciated. \n/////////////////////////////////////////// \nWINTER COUNTS\nA groundbreaking thriller about a vigilante on a Native American reservation who embarks on a dangerous mission to track down the source of a heroin influx.\nVirgil Wounded Horse is the local enforcer on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in South Dakota. When justice is denied by the American legal system or the tribal council\, Virgil is hired to deliver his own punishment\, the kind that’s hard to forget. But when heroin makes its way into the reservation and finds Virgil’s nephew\, his vigilantism suddenly becomes personal. He enlists the help of his ex-girlfriend and sets out to learn where the drugs are coming from\, and how to make them stop.\nThey follow a lead to Denver and find that drug cartels are rapidly expanding and forming new and terrifying alliances. And back on the reservation\, a new tribal council initiative raises uncomfortable questions about money and power. As Virgil starts to link the pieces together\, he must face his own demons and reclaim his Native identity. He realizes that being a Native American in the twenty-first century comes at an incredible cost.\nWinter Counts is a tour-de-force of crime fiction\, a bracingly honest look at a long-ignored part of American life\, and a twisting\, turning story that’s as deeply rendered as it is thrilling.

SUMMARY:King of Canada - World Premiere
DESCRIPTION:Infinithéâtre is thrilled to welcome you home to the theatre with the world premiere of Paul Van Dyck’s tragicomic “King of Canada”! \nRecently included as part of our “Infinite Playwrights’ Chat Room” series\, “King of Canada” is a meta-theatrical political satire that puts William Lyon Mackenzie King\, Canada’s longest-serving prime minister\, under the microscope. Part séance\, part trial\, the man and his actions are put to judgement. And with him\, the actions of our nation. A look at the power of one\, lifted by the will of many. \nEllen David and Brian Dooley\, two celebrated stars of the Montreal theatre scene\, perform in this playful yet biting examination of legacy. Dooley incarnates King\, David brings many others to life; close to forty other characters including King’s mother\, FDR\, Churchill\, Hitler\, and three Irish terriers named Pat. \n“King of Canada” will run from October 20th to November 1st at KIN Gallery. Tickets are limited\, with a maximum audience size of 20 patrons per performance. \nTo purchase tickets\, visit: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/116771405417
