About

Join us for an evening with author and journalist Waubgeshig Rice, where he will discuss his most recent novel, Moon of the Turning Leaves, the sequel to his best-selling book, Moon of the Crusted Snow.

Moon of the Turning Leaves is Waubgeshig Rice’s exhilarating return to the world first explored in the phenomenal breakout bestseller Moon of the Crusted Snow: a brooding story of survival, resilience, Indigenous identity, and rebirth.

Twelve years after the power went out worldwide, the Anishinaabe people of Shki-dnakiiwin (“New village”) discover problems with their homestead. Hoping to return to their ancestral home on the northern shore of Lake Huron, a party of six sets out to test whether it would be possible for the community to emigrate safely southward.

Now in its eleventh year, One Book, One Milton continues to be Milton Public Library’s signature annual program having played host to some of Canada’s greatest icons. MPL is honoured to added Waubgeshig Rice and his novel Moon of the Turning Leaves to this incredible list.
