    "Award-winning Cree composer and cellist Cris Derksen, who had strong ties to Manitoba’s arts community, has died following a car crash in northern Alberta. They were 45.

    Derksen, originally from Treaty 8 territory in Alberta, composed the music for the Royal Winnipeg Ballet’s 2024 production of Cameron Fraser-Moore’s ballet Tel: Wild Man of the Woods. According to reports, the crash occurred while Derksen and their wife, singer Rebecca Benson, were travelling home from Derksen’s father’s funeral. Benson was reportedly left in critical condition in hospital."
    Derkson also founded the Indigenous Classical Gathering at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, served as artistic advisor for the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra, and chaired the equity committee for Orchestras Canada.

    My Indian Summer by Joseph Kakwinokanasum
    A novel about survival, reconciliation and identity set during the summer of 1979.
    strongnations.com/store/10103/
    Joseph Kakwinokanasum is a member of James Smith #Cree Nation. Kakwinokanasum's work has been published in the 2022 anthology Resonance: Essays on the Craft and Life of Writing, the Humber Literary Journal and Emerge.
    Kakwinokanasum was shortlisted for the 2020 CBC Nonfiction Prize.

    The Collected Works of Billy the Kid, by Michael Ondaatje, won the 1970 Governor General's Literary Award. Ondaatje's hauntingly disturbing evocation of the life and death of the 19th-century American outlaw placed him in the forefront of the new generation of Canadian poets emerging in the 1970s. The Collected Works commences with a list of 20 men killed by Billy the Kid and a foreshadowing of his own death. Using a highly visual, visceral poetic style featuring violent surreal images of madness and men killed in gun fights, shifts in time and perspective, and impressionistic fragments of Billy's existence, Ondaatje traces his capture, escape and eventual death at the hands of Pat Garrett, the "ideal assassin." Following the publication of The Collected Works by House of Anansi in 1970, a dozen major productions of a stage adaptation were held across Canada.(from The Canadian Encyclopedia)
