Joséphine Bacon (f. 1947) är poet, översättare och dokumentärfilmare som skriver sin poesi på innu-aimun och franska. En av den kanadensiska litteraturens främsta poeter som för dagens unga urfolkspoeter, konstnärer och aktivister blivit en inspirationskälla och föregångare. Med ett språk som är såväl vackert som enkelt och skarpt fylls hennes poesi med en respekt för naturen och hennes förmödrar. I diktsamlingen Uiesh / Någonstans försöker Bacon mot slutet av sitt liv från staden återvända till tundrans ord, naturen och den nomadiska flyttleden. En tvåspråkig diktsamling på innu-aimun och Johan Sandberg McGuinnes svenska översättning.

Vital bilingual poetry by Innu Elder Jos phine BaconUiesh / Somewhere consists of short poems that speak directly to the reader, without artifice or pretension. They arise from Jos phine Bacon's experience as an Innu woman, whose life has taken her from the nomadic ways of her Ancestors in the northern wilderness of Nitassinan, or Innu Territory, to the clamour and bustle of the city. Wherever she is, the poet and Elder is attentive to the smallest details of her environment ... from the moon and the stars, the aurorae borealis, the falling snow, the changing seasons, to the sirens of fire engines and ambulances and the noise of a busy bar night. From her quiet centre, she listens to the voices of the Old Ones, whose stories are alive within her, and looks back at the beauty and the pain of her long life.

Translated from the French into English by Phyllis Aronoff. This bilingual work (English and Innu-aimun) is an invitation to dialogue. Message sticks are the signs that allow the nomadic Innu to orient themselves inland and find their way. The poetry brings the language of the nutshimit (the back country) to life again, recalling the sound of the drum. Simple and beautiful, Jos phine Bacon's poetry is an homage to the land, the ancestors, and the Innu-aimun language. Charting unwritten history, it provides a vision into the intensity of the elders' words.
