A tale described by the Globe & Mail as “both generous and wise, from one of our most distinguished elders”, James Bartleman’s memoir, Raisin Wine, tells of his growing up in a ‘different’ Muskoka: a poor boy and a member of the Mnjikaning First Nation, who lived on the other side of the tracks from the wealthy summer-cottage residents. Raison Wine is a humorous and heartfelt story of a youngster with big dreams, and an even bigger imagination.
