Born With a Tooth gathers thirteen distinct short stories that portray contemporary First Peoples communities with urgency and wit. The collection pairs bold narrative voices with precise, affecting prose to examine how identity, memory and tradition shape everyday lives.

Characters range from a boy in a butterfly costume fascinated by professional wrestling to a woman whose relationship with a wolf blurs myth and reality, and an all-girl Native punk band confronting culture and rebellion. A recurring figure, Painted Tongue, threads some pieces together, offering a hauntingly familiar presence.
