Rooted deep in its author's lived experience as an Inuk woman, Where the Heart Carries the Light is a deeply evocative poetry collection that takes the reader on a journey through love, grief, motherhood, leadership, and the enduring strength of Inuit culture and community despite generations of systemic governmental abuses and neglect. A deeply personal and starkly honest examination of healing, identity, and reclamation, this collection takes a vividly poignant look at the impacts of colonialism still being felt by Indigenous communities, as well as the strength required to continue rising up each day with light despite the crushing weight and darkness of continued injustice and loss.

This book is not simply poetry. It is my testimony. It is my reclamation.
It is my truth-telling. It is my love for my people and a refusal to let our voices be quieted. I wrote this for Inuit who carry generational strength and generational grief in the same body. For those who were told to be quiet or small. For those who are learning to speak again. For those who have lost loved ones, lost themselves, or lost their places and are finding their way home in their own time.
