I agree with you that the quotes you shared are so connected to the way that Anna feels history through the museum textiles.

As she gently and graphically describes the region, you can read the pull she must have to the region in the book. I love Melanie's description of the Nicola Valley being a character in itself in the book – this is so true, or how it came across to me. I had not considered that before reading this. <br />It is interesting how the description of historical textiles were also a story of themselves, and told us so much of history. It reminds me a bit of a quote from a book I am reading, 'Art Matters because your imagination can change the world' by N Gaiman. …. “Books are the way that the dead communicate with us. The way that we learn lessons from those who are no longer with us, the way that humanity has built on itself, progressed ….'. I have no knowledge of Indigenous history of Canada, and yet this fiction has definitely passed some of that history on in an enjoyable read. .....
