500 $aCollection of essays and stories.
520 $aIn this remarkably candid collection of personal essays and stories, Joanne Arnott explores multiple themes: tapping her creative energy as mother, writer, workshop facilitator; celebrating friendship as a potent path to healing; acknowledging the 'bodymind' pain of racism and societal denial of racism; and finding the sacred within ourselves by reclaiming women's rituals.
520 8 $aTo read Breasting the Waves is to participate in "a conspiracy of healing." It is to witness the vulnerability, strength and pride of a Metis woman writer reclaiming her full powers.
