Beaver Hills Forever
A Metis Poetic Novella
Conor Kerr
This playful, yet hard-hitting novella follows Buddy, a welder in the oil fields; Baby Momma, the mother of his four children, who is trying to go back to school; Fancy University Boy, who begins but drops out of university, and then works in a warehouse supplying oil industry parts; and Aunty Prof, an untenured prof of Indigenous lit – each life showing the limitations of paths available to Métis people on the Prairies, and the determination these characters have to make something of themselves.
