Fire from the Heart 2021 Catherine Garrett

Fire from the Heart 2021 collects the winning poems from the 2021 Muriel's Journey Poetry Prize, which honours the vitality, vivacity, and outspoken

presence of poet-activist Muriel Marjorie, who passed on in the fall of 2018.




An Indigenous social justice activist, poet, and spoken word artist, what Muriel had to say would often literally wake you up. Her enthusiastic encouragement of innovative creative endeavours was infectious.
