Gitwaałtk

Gitwaałtk by Crystal AJ Smith is the story of a young Indigenous woman who loses her Sister-Cousin to the highway of tears and who embarks on a journey with her na̱xnox to find and bring to justice to the person responsible for her Sister’s disappearance. 
It’s an exploration of how grief and loss can find strength in family, community, and tradition.

“…its emotional and political urgency is undeniable. It’s greatest strength lies not in traditional storytelling, but in its relentless, affecting portrayal of the realities facing Indigenous women and communities and the feelings it elicits in the reader…compelling readers to reckon with these truths.” - Alana (Whatithinkaboutthisbook) Goodreads
