BC Libraries Present: Indigenous Fiction Virtual Series

For the second year in a row, BC’s public libraries are hosting a virtual author series to bring new insights and voices to library users in every corner of British Columbia. For this series, the topic is Indigenous Fiction.

Jessica Johns’s debut novel, Bad Cree, is a gripping story about intergenerational trauma that follows a Cree millennial who has haunting dreams about her dead sister and Kokum.

This ground breaking horror novel that grapples with the effects of grief and the power of kinship, got a country-wide spotlight on CBC Canada Reads 2024.

For the third event of this lineup, join Jessica Johns in conversation with award-winning writer Selina Boan.

All events are hosted on the BC Libraries Present Crowdcast channel:crowdcast.io/@bclibraries-present

BC Libraries Present is a project of BC’s public library federations with the generous financial support of the Province of British Columbia through the Ministry of Municipal Affairs.
