Tracey Lindberg is a Canadian writer and academic, and was
the first Canadian Aboriginal woman to complete her graduate law degree at
Harvard. She hails from the Kelly Lake Cree Nation community in North Western
Alberta where she still lives. She is an award winning academic writer, and
teaches Indigenous studies and Indigenous law at Athabasca
University and the University of Ottawa
Birdie, her debut novel, is darkly comic and moving. At it’s heart it is the story of an extraordinary
woman who travels to the deepest part of herself, to find the strength to face
the past and build a new life.It is part quest and part travelogue. Birdie has been chosen for Canada Reads 2016 and the library has a copy.
