description: Legacy is the first novel by Waubgeshig Rice whose collection of stories;Midnight Sweatlodge was the Gold Medal Winner of the Independent Publisher Book Awards 2012 for Adult Multicultural Fiction. Set in the 1990s Legacy deals with violence against a young Indigenous woman and its lingering after-shocks on an Anishinaabe family in Ontario. Its themes of injustice privilege and those denied it reconciliation and revenge are as timely as todays headlines.With Legacy Waubgeshig Rice places himself squarely at the forefront of the next wave of Native authors. Bold envisioned storytelling. A hands down pleasure to read.  Richard Wagamese
