Guy Vanderhaeghe’s The Last Crossing is a Western of subtly crossed borders. Vanderhaeghe elicits a sense of blurred lines between opposites, giving the illusion that boundaries are not so statically fixed. The historical figure Jerry Potts illustrates that the division between Indigenous and white is not so easily distinguished by ways of appearances, languages, and relations.

The book “Maximum Ride” would be very different if the story plot was set 100 years in the past. If it was set 100 years in the past, the characters might have not even met each other.

The warm wind hits my face and time seems to stop. The sound of my horses hooves thumping against the ground is the only thing I hear. Flying wildly in the wind, her mane shimmers in the sunlight. The sound of laughter breaks the silence. I turn to see a woman riding a pure white horse next to me. Her long brown hair and her soft blue eyes send a shock of remembrance, but I don’t know who she is. I think hard, trying to search my memories of her. A gold heart shines on her boots.

I don’t remember what happened in my dream, but I keep seeing her face. It’s my mom.
