In them, he recalls the vast Canadian Prairies with lyrical tenderness—a place where he had built a home and dreamed of returning. Yet beneath his hopeful words lies an unspoken sense of foreboding. As Robert's story unfolds, it invites us to reflect on what it truly means to belong. Is finding a place to lay our hearts a right or a privilege? And how many of us are ever able to call a place home? Storyteller Katie Proven brings her great-grandfather's remarkable letter to life, weaving it with Indigenous Canadian folk tales, myths, and legends. The result is a rich tapestry of landscape, and story—a poignant exploration of home, loss, belonging, and the enduring power of hope. *This event is part of The Scottish International Storytelling Festival! *This is a family event and suitable for children aged 14+ years.
