Tanya Tagaq’s Split Tooth is a coming-of-age novel following the unnamed protagonist and narrator, an Inuit girl growing up in Nunavut in the s. As a teenager, she becomes pregnant in an environment characterized by rampant substance abuse, sexual violence, the residential school system and its intergenerational impacts, and the power of the land. “Though the protagonist’s coming-of-age story, generously and lovingly documented by Tagaq, is the anchor, Split Tooth is not a book that can be fully absorbed in one sitting. It’s possible to sink deeper and deeper into the narrative with each successive reading. Split Tooth is a book that defies genres. It is at once an auto-fiction, a coming of age story, spoken word Inuit folklore and if you listen to the audiobook this sheer poetry is punctuated with song. Tagaq's incantations and susurrations allow Split Tooth to take on another dimension. As a reader you feel as if you are on a vision quest and Tagaq is your guiding shaman.
