Her poetic works and essays are recognized and acclaimed by critics, have traveled the world, have been translated into several languages and are studied at various levels in schools in Qu\u00e9bec and elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2017, she received the Prix Droits et Libert\u00e9s for her poetry. At just 29 years of age, she is already one of the public figures who have contributed to the recognition of Qu\u00e9bec’s Indigenous peoples, both here and around the world. In 2021, she published her first novel Nauetakuan : un silence pour un bruit (\u00c9ditions XYZ), with themes that are dear to her heart, such as the return to oneself, the journey to meet other Indigenous peoples, the territory, daydreaming and art. That same year, she was promoted to the rank of Chevalier de l’Ordre des arts et des lettres de la R\u00e9publique fran\u00e7aise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This event is presented by Place des Arts du Grand Sudbury in collaboration with le Salon du livre du Grand Sudbury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Enlightening Talks for Evolving Times We live in times that sense the need for change.
