Instantly lucid, unpredictable, and engaging, Matthew Maneras A Stone In My Pocket depicts the catalysts that change the life path of young Gretchen Williamson, whose predictable Ontario rural life during the booming 1850s is changed by the pandemonium of the coming of the Great Western Railway and the establishment of the stone hooking schooner trade at the mouth of the Credit River. Set in counterpoint against her two sisters one who speaks through her music only and the other who speaks through her actions Gretchens aspirations and thoughts frame an artistic portrait of a woman determined to expel convention, her fathers prescribed religion, and her own fears of failure. In her quest for independence, she must absorb the richness of the Ojibwa culture, the magic of Irish augury and bewitchment, and realize that her attraction to books and the art of typesetting point to her selfsufficiency.
