HarperCollins Canada is proud to share with you this collection of HarperCollins Canadian Classics, featuring the masterworks of some of the finest writers in the country that reveal to us essential truths about the way we live. Birdie is the acclaimed, nationally bestselling novel about the journey a Cree woman takes to understand her dreams, face her past, and, in turn, find her future. A big, beautiful Cree woman with a dark secret in her past, Bernice (Birdie) has left her home in
northern Alberta to travel to Gibsons, B.C. She is on something of a vision quest, looking for family, for home, for understanding. She is also driven by the leftover teenaged desire to meet Pat John—Jesse from The Beachcombers—because he is, as she says, a working, healthy Indian man. Birdie heads for Molly’s Reach to find answers, but they are not the ones she expected. Informed by the lore and knowledge of Cree traditions, Birdie is a darkly comic and moving novel about the universal experience of recovering from tragedy. At heart, it is the story of an extraordinary woman who travels to the deepest part of herself to face her past and build a new life.
