Winter in the North | Claire Gordon-Bouvier
A collection of fifteen stories set during the winter months in the stark, vast beauty of Scandinavia, Iceland, the British Isles and Russia. From man's struggles against the inexorable wrath of nature in the hostile climates of the north, to the simple lives of farmers and fishermen governed by the waxing and waning of the seasons, these stories explore themes of life and death, lore and legend, vanishing traditions and a never-ending search for meaning.
