“When my first book was picked up by Milkweed, I had no idea just how lucky I was to have found such a thoughtful publishing partner…Milkweed wasn’t just focused on the words on the page; When it came time to launch the book into the world, they invited me to present it directly to booksellers at their annual conference. Because of all the attention and care Milkweed showed throughout the process, I knew I wanted to work with them on my follow-up book, The Quickening: Creation and Community at the Ends of the Earth.”
 

“Milkweed Editions carries the real narratives of Indigenous people out into the Western world, which has historically refused to accept these stories…For this reason and more, I think Milkweed is the brave new face of contemporary storytelling, and I’m so grateful to be part of it. Especially today, we need justice.”
 

“I’ve always loved the books that Milkweed publishes, and as a writer, it was a dream house for me. Milkweed began stewarding my work back in 2012, and they told me when they agreed to work with me that they didn’t just believe that it would become a beautiful book; they also believed that I was the type of writer whose career they wanted to help along the way.”
