In March 2010 the Canadian Literature Centre hosted award-winning novelist and storyteller Eden Robinson at the 4th annual Henry Kreisel Lecture. Robinson shared an intimate look into the intricacies of family, culture, and place through her talk, The Sasquatch at Home. Robinsons disarming honesty and wry irony shine through her depictions of her and her mothers trip to Graceland, the Potlatch where she and her sister received their Indian names, how her parents first met in Bella Bella (Waglisla, British Columbia) and a wilderness outing where she and her father try to get a look at bgwus, the Sasquatch. Readers of memoir; Indigenous literatures, histories and cultures; and fans of Robinsons delightful, poignant, sometimes quirky tales will love The Sasquatch at Home.About author(s):Eden Robinson is the internationally acclaimed author of Traplines, Monkey Beach, and Blood Sports.
