  • Summary

  • Amanda Peters is a Mi’kmaw writer from Nova Scotia whose debut novel, “The Berry Pickers,” became one of the most talked about books in North America last year. Now, she’s back with a collection of short stories, titled “Waiting for the Long Night Moon.” The book touches on heavy topics like residential schools, the fight for the right to clean water, systemic racism and abuse, as well as intimate stories based on her own life as a white-passing Indigenous woman. Amanda sits down with Tom to talk about her literary success, the heaviness and joy in her new collection, and why she calls these stories her “training wheels.”
