{"product_id":"guy-roberts-stones-of-grease-9798231278190","title":"Stones Of Grease","description":"On a fog-bright river between kelp and rookery, two houses learn to keep peace where law can be seen.When a Wolf house matriarch-the Sigidimnak'-and a sea-side k'uuljaad agree to cool a generations-long border quarrel, the work happens in public: witnesses fed first, copper cooled with grease, stones planted where water tells the truth. Across a year of fish runs and storms, gunboat visits and fort rules, a marriage is brokered, captives are brought home, and a bar-pole rises to mark the truce.Told through speeches, ceremonies, and the quiet labor that keeps houses upright, Stones of Grease is a slow-burn novel of matrilineal leadership, repair, and responsibility on the northern Northwest Coast in the mid-nineteenth century. It centers Indigenous law-in-public-where mistakes are corrected so people stay useful-and the rooms where art, memory, and governance live together.This is a story of aunties and envoys, of teaching canoes and grease trails, of boys learning to keep powder behind words, and of a community choosing work over noise.Perfect for readers of layered historical fiction who want ceremony treated with care-and a coastline rendered with precision and respect.","brand":"guy roberts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53731086369110,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/guy-roberts-stones-of-grease-9798231278190","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
