Under Nushagak Bluff : Boreal Books : 9781597098090 : 1597098094 : 12 May 2020 : In 1939, everything changes for Anne Girl when outsider John Nelson grounds his sailboat on the shores, into Anne Girl&;s skiff, and into her life during a rare storm in the Alaskan fishing village of Nushagak. When Anne Girl and her mother Marulia find their skiff flattened by John&;s boat, Anne Girl decides she both hates and wants him. Thus begins a generational saga of strong, stubborn Yup&;ik women living in a village that has been divided between the new and the old, the bluff side and the missionary side, the cannery side and the subsistence side.
