By the author of "Girl in Hyacinth Blue," this is a fictionalized story of Emily Carr, a young Canadian artist in early 20th century British Columbia, whose love for the art forms of the native tribes - particularly totem poles - becomes a source of strength and delight, as well as public rejection and, ultimately, redemption.
