The Dialogues, The Song Of Francis Pegahmagabow

Written by Armand Garnet Ruffo

Nishnaabemwin Translations by Brian D. McInnes

”In The Dialogues: The Song Of Francis Pegahmagabow, award-winning Anishinaabe writer Armand Garnet Ruffo shares the story not only of WW1 sharpshooter Francis Pegahmagabow’s life, but also the process of reinventing that life and putting it on stage. Filled with historical documents, philosophical queries, questions of translation and exerts from opera scores, each resonating with their own kind of poetry, Ruffo’s writing brings Pegahmagabow viberentlg to life while laying bare the struggle to reach through the past and into the truth.”
