“Highly readable and of extraordinary value.” —The Globe and Mail

A deeply personal journey of Indigenous reclamation, belonging, and the power of language.

More than thirty years after its original publication, Back on the Rez remains a landmark work in Indigenous storytelling and self-reclamationBrian Maracle—journalist, broadcaster, and Mohawk of the Six Nations of the Grand River—tells the deeply honest story of his return to the community he left decades earlier. Trading his life in downtown Toronto for a home on the reserve, he confronts the divide between urban survival and traditional connection, between English and the revitalizing power of the Mohawk language.

This edition speaks directly to a new generation navigating similar crossroads—between cities and communities, colonial systems and cultural renewal, burnout and belongingAt a time when language preservation, land stewardship, and Indigenous resurgence are urgent national priorities, Maracle’s reflections are more relevant than ever. He writes not as an expert, but as someone walking back into his culture with humility, curiosity, and clarity.

Unflinching and wise, Back on the Rez offers readers a rare glimpse into what it really means to come home—not just geographically, but spiritually and politicallyThis is a clear-eyed memoir about what it means to belong and a powerful account of returning not just to a place, but to a way of being.
