Katherena Vermette (bestselling author of The Break) offers The Strangers, a staggering intergenerational saga that explores how connected we are, even when we're no longer together, even when we're forced apart . . .
The Strangers brings readers into the dynamic world of the Stranger family, the strength of their bond, the shared pain in their past, and the light that beckons from the horizon. This is a searing exploration of race, class, inherited trauma, and matrilineal bonds that (despite everything) refuse to be broken.
“Vermette offers up a beautiful, raw testament to those living on the margins ... Cathartic and disturbing, The Strangers offers vital insight into the colonial brutality that still haunts the lives of the Métis.” -- 2021 Atwood Gibson Writers' Trust Fiction Prize Jury
