Katherena Vermette's Procession is a powerful novel exploring the lives of Indigenous women across generations, examining how trauma, resilience, and love move through families. Through interconnected narratives, Vermette reveals the ongoing impact of colonialism, violence, and systemic injustice on Indigenous communities, while celebrating the strength and connections that allow survival. The novel becomes both witness to pain and testament to the enduring power of Indigenous women's resistance. WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Vermette refuses to look away from hard truths while also refusing to reduce Indigenous women to their trauma. This novel shows us that survival is an act of resistance, and that the bonds between women across generations are what make that survival possible.
