Dungeness - Paperback
Description
by Karen Polinsky (Author)
In the 1880s, Millie Langlie, the daughter of a S'Klallam woman and a Norwegian mariner, lives within sight of the New Dungeness Light Station on the Strait of Juan de Fuca in present-day Washington state.
When Millie is six, her mother pierces her ears and gives her a pair of silver fish earrings that had belonged to a woman who had survived the Dungeness massacre. The earrings are said to be cursed but Millie cherishes them. They are her touchstone as she grows up, navigating her S'Klallam and Norwegian heritage to find her own place in the world.
Feel the sea mist and run through the verdant forests on the Strait of Juan de Fuca and be immersed in stories filled with true events and people, mixed with vivid S'Klallam tales and lore.
