Book Signing: Linda LeGarde Grover

Zenith Bookstore is delighted to welcome award-winning Duluth author Linda LeGarde Grover for a meet-and-greet on Saturday, October 11th, 1-3 pm. Linda will sign and share one-on-one with guests the paperback release of her novel A Song Over Miskwaa Rapids (University Of Minnesota Press).

When a rock is dislodged from its slope by mischievous ancestors, the past rises to meet the present, and Half-Dime Hill gives up a gruesome secret it has kept for half a century. Some people of Mozhay Point have theories about what happened; others know—and the discovery stirs memories long buried, reviving a terrible story yet to be told. A fifty-year-old mystery converges with a present-day struggle over family, land, and history.

Beginning with her award-winning debut story collection The Dance Boots and continuing with her novels The Road Back to Sweetgrass and In the Night of Memory, both published by University of Minnesota Press, Linda LeGarde Grover has created and explored the imaginary Mozhay Point Ojibwe Reservation in northern Minnesota. She also wrote the poetry collection The Sky Watched and a book blending memoir, history, and Ojibwe tradition, Gichigami Hearts: Stories and Histories from Misaabekong. She is professor emerita of American Indian studies at the University of Minnesota Duluth and a member of the Bois Forte Band of Ojibwe.
