Living on the Borderlines
by Melissa Michal
Debut writer Melissa Michal weaves together an understated and contemplative collection exploring what it means to be Native. In these stories, the longing for intergenerational memory slips into everyday life: a teenager struggles to understand her grandmother's silences, a family seeks to reconnect with a lost sibling, and a young woman searches for a cave that's called to her family for generations.
