‘Wake the Stone Man’ is profoundly readable, even when it is uncomfortable. I drank in every word and was affected by every page. I learned about certain Canadian history - the good, the bad, the horrendous. You live this book while you read it. And that is the best kind of book there is. Who should read it? Every Canadian. Every woman. Every First Nations person. Everyone.
