In this extraordinary and inspiring debut memoir, Jesse Thistle, once a high school droupout and now a rising Indigenous scholar, chronicles his life on the streets and how he overcame trauma and addiction to discover the truth about who he is.
“If I can just make it to the next minute…then I might have a chance to live; I might have a chance to be something more than just a struggling crackhead.”
From the Ashes is a remarkable memoir about hope and resilience, and a revelatory look into the life of a Métis-Cree man who refused to give up.
