Our appreciation to Alberta Views and reviewer Theresa Shea for an excellent review of Sharon Butala’s How to Breathe Water:
“Butala’s greatest gift is her language. Her descriptions of prairie landscapes and endless skies make the seemingly ordinary extraordinary. . . . Smart, honest, and moving, How to Breathe Water is a profound meditation on family and history, an elegant exploration of mortality and a clarion call to strive ‘for a life fully lived.'”
