About This Book

ÉlevĂ©e sur une rĂ©serve routiĂšre de la Couronne dans le nord de la Saskatchewan, Maria Campbell est une enfant sensible et dĂ©terminĂ©e qui, malgrĂ© la grande prĂ©caritĂ© ambiante, s'Ă©merveille devant le quotidien animĂ© de sa communautĂ©.AprĂšs le dĂ©cĂšs de sa mĂšre, elle se marie Ă  un Blanc afin d'offrir une vie meilleure Ă  ses frĂšres et sƓurs, mais Ă©choue plutĂŽt dans les bas-fonds de Vancouver, oĂč elle connaĂźt la prostitution, la dĂ©pendance et la dĂ©pression. InspirĂ©e par sa Cheechum, elle s'engage alors sur la voie de la guĂ©rison, et dans une quĂȘte de reconnaissance et de dignitĂ© qu'elle partage avec toute une gĂ©nĂ©ration de MĂ©tis.Avec «Halfbreed», Maria Campbell expose, sans fard et dans une langue directe, la pauvretĂ©, l'exclusion, la honte et le racisme hĂ©ritĂ©s du colonialisme, et livre un tĂ©moignage puissant sur la rĂ©silience de son peuple.L'ouvrage comprend un passage relatant le viol de Maria Campbell par un agent de la GRC qui avait Ă©tĂ© expurgĂ© de l'Ă©dition originale avant d'ĂȘtre rĂ©tabli, en 2019, dans la rĂ©Ă©dition parue chez McClelland & Stewart.Cette traduction française est le fruit d'une collaboration entre l'artiste wendat Charles Bender, Ă  qui l'on doit notamment la version française de la piĂšce LĂ  oĂč le sang se mĂȘle, de Kevin Loring, et Jean Marc DalpĂ©, prolifique homme de thĂ©Ăątre, Ă©crivain, traducteur et collaborateur de longue date de la maison.
