Where the Sun Swings North E-text prepared by Al Haines "Where the Sun Swings North" by Barrett Willoughby is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in the remote setting of Katleean, Alaska, focusing on the complex lives of both the white trader, Paul Kilbuck, known as the White Chief, and the native Thlinget people, exploring themes of love, culture contrasts, and the impact of colonialism. The narrative delves into Kilbuck's relationships and influence over the local tribes as he navigates a world steeped in both privilege and peril. The opening of the novel introduces us to Paul Kilbuck, a trader in Katleean, who sits alone in the company’s trading post, reflecting on his position and relationships with the Thlinget people. As preparations for an impending Potlatch, an indigenous festival, unfold around him, we learn about Kilbuck's complex past, the contrast between his life and that of the native women he engages with, particularly one named Naleenah. The opening chapters set the stage for conflicts emerging from his authority and attraction to these women, revealing insights into the affluent yet morally ambiguous life he leads amid the stark wilderness of Alaska, as well as hints of upcoming tensions linked to colonialism and cultural misunderstandings.
