A return of Sky Woman, a call to resistance

In *She Falls Again*, Rosanna Deerchild brings poetry, prose, and dialogue together around the return of Sky Woman and the rise of the matriarch. The work places this mythic presence alongside a poet trying to survive in Winnipeg, where Indigenous women are being disappeared, and a crow whose identity as trickster remains uncertain. Its concerns include the survival of Indigenous women, resistance to patriarchy, and the female self. The collection’s blend of contemporary urban context and mythic figures frames its call for a different world for Indigenous women.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in contemporary poetry engaging with Indigenous women’s lives and resistance.
  • Readers drawn to works that combine poetry, prose, and dialogue.
  • Readers interested in the use of mythic figures such as Sky Woman and the trickster crow.

The Sky Woman has returned to bring down the patriarchy!



This book is about a poet who may or may not be going crazy, who is just trying to survive in Winnipeg, where Indigenous people, especially women, are being disappeared. She is talking to a crow who may or may not be a trickster, and who brings a very important message: Sky Woman has returned, and she is ready to take down the patriarchy.



This is poetry, prose and dialogue about the rise and return of the matriarch. It's a call to resistance, a manifesto to the female self.



Cree poet and broadcaster Rosanna Deerchild is an important voice for our time. Her poems - angry, funny, sad - demand a new world for Indigenous women.
