One of my professors, during my Arts degree, lent this to me. I finally read it and, being ten years since she lent it to me, I doubt I’ll be getting it back to her. Her use of paper clips as post-it flags and pencil markings around key sections only added to my reading.
This is a beautiful, tender, honest, funny reflection on what it means to understand one another and the power of language in facilitating that.

This tiny 37-page transcription of a multilingual 2014 Henry Kissel lecture that Highway gave at the University of Alberta is delightful. A lot of Highway's discussion is about the many benefits of multilingualism. Sections of the book are written in the many languages that Highway speaks and knows, although Dene is an oral language with no written form. It's difficult to describe clearly but it's worth searching out and spending a short amount of time reading this lovely book
