Description

In Everything Is a Story, award-winning Indigenous author Kaitlin B. Curtice considers how stories take root in our lives like an acorn that grows into an oak tree. Following a story's life cycle, Curtice explores how narratives shape both our inner lives and our broader communities. Which stories should we pass on to future generations--and which can we finally let go?
With contemplative poetry woven throughout and a foreword by Simran Jeet Singh, Everything Is a Story offers a hope-filled framework for reshaping our lives by reclaiming stories of courage, wholeness, and deep-rooted compassion.
