About this listen
One Native Life is a look back down the road Richard Wagamese has traveled - from childhood abuse to adult alcoholism - in reclaiming his identity. It's about what he has learned as a human being, a man, and an Ojibway in his 52 years on Earth.
Whether he's writing about playing baseball, running away with the circus, making bannock, or attending a sacred bundle ceremony, these are stories told in a healing spirit. Through them, Wagamese reveals to listeners how to appreciate life for the journey it is.

Great insight and storytelling
Overall this was a great story told in a wonderful way. I think it is a great way for people to see life from another viewpoint. Although I lived in country it was on a farm and very different from the life Richard Wagnese lived both in the city and it the country. I appreciate this insight.

Beautiful
Richard Wagamese had such an amazing story to tell, and some of it was very tragic, but all of it was written so beautifully. The narration was a little bit fast so I slowed it down to 0.9 speed and it was perfect.

A story of finding connection, meaning & belonging
There are so many impactful messages in this One Native Life.
Trying to wrap your head around being a child Left in the bush - forgotten & cold.
How meaningful empathetic, supportive and loving adoptions & fosterings are to a child and how important it is.
Hearing the stories of the parents mimicking onto the children their experiences from Residential Schools through abuse and verbal assaults is so sad.
Thank you for writing this book .

One man's life...inspiring
This book resonated with me on a spiritual level. His life, though of another generation, reflected my own on so many levels and I related to his words of cultural displacement. I have so much to learn but I'm glad I picked up this book because it has given me courage to continue my path of rediscovering my heritage. This is one book that will be listened to again and again.

Amazing stories by a beautiful man.
Beautifully composed life lessons shared in humble non-threatening accessible way. A man that is deeply missed. Wagamies has the ability to impart such wisdom and knowledge through his own life's journey. I am thankful that he has left behind these stories for generations to come.

This book warmed my heart ❤️
This generous offering of positive life milestones viewed through the eyes of Richard Wagamese, an extraordinarily talented writer ,is a gift. He captures the beauty and spirit of the people and events that nurtured his growth despite profound personal trauma. The narrators richly mellow voice perfectly articulates the writers eloquent prose. This is a book to savor and to reread.
